Diseases of Vegetable Crops in Australia provides a diagnostic guide and a key reference for diseases affecting vegetable crops in Australia. This is an extensively revised and expanded edition of a previous publication that was a standard reference for the Australian vegetable industry. Authors from across Australia provide essential information about the important diseases affecting most vegetable grown across Australia’s diverse horticultural production areas. The book includes an account of the causes of plant diseases and the principles underlying their control. It provides an overview of important diseases common to many Australian vegetable crops. Causal pathogens, symptoms, source of infection, how the diseases are spread and recommended management are described for 36 major and specialty crops. Special reference is made to exotic diseases that are biosecurity threats to Australian vegetable production. The text is supported by quality colour images to help growers diagnose diseases.

Bacterial diseases cause significant impacts to vegetable production nationally. Disease outbreaks are sporadic and influenced substantially by weather conditions. This guide provides information on the most common bacterial diseases in Australian vegetables, how to identify them and what management is available for their control. Bacterial diseases can affect all production systems from open field to high-tech protected cropping. This disease guide covers bacteria already present in Australia. There are many other bacterial diseases present overseas which could enter Australia. It is important to be aware of these diseases and send samples for diagnoses if you suspect a new disease has arrived.

Virus diseases cause significant impacts to vegetable production nationally. Disease outbreaks are sporadic and influenced substantially by the behaviour of the insects that spread them. Insect behaviour is influenced strongly by weather conditions, both directly through effects on their multiplication rate and through availability of alternative plant hosts. Some of the viral diseases are not spread by insects. Spread of these viruses is influenced by hygiene and crop production practices. This guide provides information on the most common viral diseases in Australian vegetables, how to identify them and what management is available for their control. Viral diseases can affect all production systems from open field to high-tech protected cropping. This disease guide covers viruses already present in Australia. There are many exotic viruses present overseas which could enter Australia. It is important to be aware of these viruses and send samples for diagnoses if you suspect a new disease has arrived.

The book entitled “Disease Problems in Vegetable Production” 2nd edition, is specifically prepared for under and post graduate students in Agriculture/ Horticulture and range of professionals including teachers, researchers, extension plant pathologists and elite vegetable growers. The book gives a comprehensive over-view of economic importance, symptomatology, etiology, pre-disposing factors and management of vegetable diseases employing cultural, biological, host resistance, plant extracts and chemical methods as such and in anintegrated approach so that the ravages due to the diseases remain below economic threshold level. A total of 19 chapters dealing with important diseases of vegetables like potato, tomato, crucifers, cucurbits, pea, French bean, chillies and bell pepper, onion, garlic, eggplant, carrot, sugar beet, colocasia, okra and leafy vegetables have been compiled in this book. Two new chapters on diseases of ginger and diseases of vegetables under protected cultivation as well as some important diseases of different vegetable crops left out in the first edition have been added in this edition. Besides, the book also includes chapters on common pathogens of vegetable crops, disease problems in nurseries, post harvest diseases and diseases caused by nematodes. All chapters have been updated in the light of available literature up to 2017. Symptoms, disease cycles of important diseases and different structures of pathogen(s) have also been given in the book that will not only help in better diagnosis and understanding of the perpetuation and spread of the causal pathogens but will also help in the management of these diseases more effectively. Coloured photographs of disease symptoms have also been included for easy identification of vegetable diseases.
