Since then, there has been an  increasing interest in induced resistance as a new, environmentally  safe means of disease control, as well as a model for the study of the  genes involved in host defence and the signals that control them.  \u003cbr\u003e  This increased interest led the editors of \u003cem\u003eInduced Resistance to\u003c\/em\u003e  \u003cem\u003eDisease in Plants\u003c\/em\u003e to collect and summarise much of the current  and older literature on the topic in a single volume. Each chapter  covers its topic as comprehensively as possible, thus serving as a  solid introduction to the literature, as well as expressing its  writer's own views on the state of research in the area and giving an  indication of where future research may lead. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eInduced Resistance to Disease in Plants\u003c\/em\u003e addresses the biology of  induced resistance in legumes, solanaceae, cucurbits and monocots,  since these are the families that have received the most attention,  followed by a discussion of the molecular basis of induced resistance,  its genetic and evolutionary significance, and practical applications  in disease control. \u003cbr\u003e  The book will provide a background for those commencing work in the  area, as well as a source of information for established workers who  wish to learn about other areas of induced resistance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-01-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792332152\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-8420-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 234cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 183\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312033419404,"sku":"9780792332152","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792332152.jpg?v=1771516189","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792332152","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
