Advances in Plant Disease Management: Volume I: Fundamental and Basic Research is an invaluable compilation for researchers/students/stakeholders/policymakers in agriculture. The book aims to offer the latest understanding of fundamental and basic research fronts toward managing crop plants diseases. After clearly explaining the updated knowledge on the host immune system, and pathogen’s interplay with the host as unraveled through genomics, bioinformatics, and molecular studies, this book equips readers with the knowledge to confidently account for them during the formulation of management strategies for major crop plant diseases.The book offers comprehensive coverage of the research advances in plant disease management, including:Newer insight into the host-pathogen interaction, including effector-driven pathogenesis in different host-pathogen systemsUpdates on plant defense pathways leading to resistance to pathogensUse of novel molecules, antagonists, and genome-editing tools toward manipulating host resistancePlant protection policies that support the agricultural production system from a global perspective

Advances in Plant Disease Management: Volume II: Strategic and Applied Research is an invaluable compilation for researchers/students/stakeholders/policymakers in agriculture. This book aims to offer the latest understanding of how fundamental and basic research can be translated toward the engineering of biotic stress-resilient crops through applied and strategic management of plant diseases. Volume I clearly explained the updated knowledge on basic and applied phenomena of pathogen’s interplay with the host, the host immune system, crosstalks among downstream regulating molecules as unraveled through genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics, and molecular studies. This volume of the book equips readers with the knowledge and understanding to confidently employ this basic information in the formulation of management strategies for major crop plant diseases.This book offers comprehensive coverage of the research advances in plant disease management, including:Newer insight into pest risk analysis (PRA) and its significance in international trade.Developments in eco-friendly green technologies that are safe for both humans and the environment to manage diseases.Use of AI tools for diagnosis, development of models for advanced prediction of the outbreak of epidemics, and need-based application of agrochemicals and their appropriate formulations for use through drones.The information regulation and use of biostimulants for biotic and abiotic resilience.Plant protection policies that support the agricultural production system from a global perspective.

Bacterial Blight of Rice offers a comprehensive and authoritative account of one of the most destructive diseases threatening global rice production. Rice (Oryza sativa L.), the staple food for more than half of the world’s population, suffers severe yield losses—often 30–60%—from bacterial blight caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). Although nearly 50 resistance (Xa) genes have been deployed in breeding programmes, the rapid evolution of Xoo races continues to undermine durable resistance, demanding a deeper understanding of pathogen diversity and host–pathogen interactions.This book brings together foundational knowledge and the latest scientific advances to deliver a comprehensive account of bacterial blight. It covers disease history, symptoms, diagnostics, population biology, and pathotyping, with strong emphasis on Xoo genomics, Hrp gene clusters, and effector-driven pathogenesis mediated by the Type III secretion system. Cutting-edge resistance and management strategies—including gene pyramiding, genome-enabled breeding, genome editing, and eco-friendly, sustainable disease control—are presented in a clear, practical framework.Distinctive for its systematic organization and research-backed content, the book also provides hands-on guidance for key techniques such as pathogen inoculation and virulence screening. Designed as both a textbook and a reference, it will be invaluable to students, researchers, breeders, extension professionals, policymakers, and progressive farmers.Kalyan K. Mondal has over two decades of experience in bacterial blight research and has led multiple funded projects on Xoo Type III secretion system effectors. His translational research enabled the development of seven bacterial blight–resistant rice varieties, significantly strengthening rice productivity. He also serves as an expert reviewer for the EuroXanth DokuWiki under the European COST programme.
