Understanding and minimising fungicide resistance

Editor

Dr Francisco J. Lopez-Ruiz leads the Fungicide Resistance Group at the Centre for Crop and Disease Management (CCDM). Based in the School of Molecular and Life Sciences at Curtin University, Australia, the Fungicide Resistance Group has made major contributions towards the management of fungicide resistance in several key plant pathogens. Dr Lopez-Ruiz has published widely on the molecular mechanisms of fungicide resistance and its detection.

What others are saying...

“This new book provides a comprehensive coverage of the issue of fungicide resistance in agriculture. The content of the chapters in Part one is well supported by the inclusion of several case studies – written by representatives from the scientific community and the chemical industry – in Part two which detail recent advances in understanding resistance to key groups of fungicides. Edited by a leading name in the field and featuring contributions from a very impressive list of international experts, the volume promises to be an excellent reference for the future management of fungicide resistance.”(Lise Nistrup Jørgensen, Senior Scientist, Aarhus University, Denmark)
