DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Diseases are broken down into four sections: occurrence, symptoms, biology, and control. The introductory section illustrates the diseases and disorders and the agents of those diseases. Students of plant pathology will find the technical explanations clear and the quantity of color photographs an added benefit. Anyone involved in the commercial production, shipping, import, or marketing of fruit will find this book valuable.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In contrast to the second edition, the third edition of ‘‘Fungi and Food Spoilage’’ is evolutionary rather than revolutionary. The second edition was intended to cover almost all of the species likely to be encountered in mainstream food supplies, and only a few additional species have been included in this new edition. The third edition represents primarily an updating – of taxonomy, physiology, mycotoxin production and ecology. Changes in taxonomy reflect the impact that molecular methods have had on our understanding of classification but, it must be said, have not radically altered the overall picture. The improvements in the understanding of the physiology of food spoilage fungi have been relatively small, reflecting perhaps the lack of emphasis on physiology in modern mic- biological science. Much remains to be understood about the specificity of particular fungi for particular substrates, of the influence of water activity on the growth of many of the species treated, and even on such basic parameters as cardinal temperatures for growth and the influence of pH and preservatives. Since 1997, a great deal has been learnt about the specificity of mycotoxin production and in which commodities and products-specific mycotoxins are likely to occur. Changes in our understanding of the ecology of the included species are also in most cases evolutionary. A great number of papers have been published on the ecology of foodborne fungi in the past few years, but with few exceptions the basic ecology of the included species remains.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Now established worldwide as the standard guide to the recognition and understanding of the causes of deterioration in temperate and tropical fruits and vegetables, these two superbly illustrated full-colour volumes deal clearly, concisely and systematically with each of the main diseases and disorders, emphasising those of importance to international trade. Dr Snowdon has designed each volume to be used in two different ways: 1. Full colour photographs and practical text provide the basis for preliminary identification by the owner or surveyor. 2. Using the microscope drawings and references, diagnosis can then be confirmed or modified by a specialist.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The book is divided into nine major sections: cucurbits; solanaceous fruit vegetables; miscellaneous fruit vegetables; legumes; diassicas; miscellaneous flower, stem, and leaf vegetables; bulbs; temperate roots and tubers and tropical roots and tubers. Liberally illustrated with color photographs, this book examines these diseases and disorders and educates the reader on action needed to eradicate the problem.
