| Abstract |
The fungus Heterobasidon annosum is, in economic terms, the most important causal agent of disease and of yield loss in coniferous trees in northern temperate regions. This book summarizes the considerable amount of knowledge which has been gathered about all aspects of this pathogenides the latest information on infection, host resistance, the biochemistry of host-parasite interactions, molecular and genetic regulation of the host response and methods of control. It concludes with a series of case studies from Europe and North America. |
