Compendium of Cotton Diseases, Second Edition provides practical, up-to-date information on the diagnosis and control of cotton diseases worldwide. This new edition begins with an overview of the origin and evolution of cultivated cotton and a description of the growth and development of the plant, which is fundamental in disease diagnosis and effective management strategies. Expanded disease sections include detailed pathogen descriptions, characteristic symptoms that occur, the disease cycle, and control information. Includes twice as many color photographs as the first edition.Additional improvements include:-greater attention to noninfectious disorders, including nutritional disorders, herbicide injury and toxicity, and environmental stresses.-sections on common disease interactions, host plant resistance to pathogens, and general principles of disease management in integrated production systems.

This book provides a comprehensive and systematic overview of the recent developments in cotton production and processing, including a number of genetic approaches, such as GM cotton for pest resistance, which have been hotly debated in recent decades. In the era of climate change, cotton is facing diverse abiotic stresses such as salinity, drought, toxic metals and environmental pollutants. As such, scientists are developing stress-tolerant cultivars using agronomic, genetic and molecular approaches. Gathering papers on these developments, this timely book is a valuable resource for a wide audience, including plant scientists, agronomists, soil scientists, botanists, environmental scientists and extention workers.
