Abstract

"Parasitic diseases and nonparasitic disorders can cause serious vegetable losses in home gardens. Many species of microorganisms - including fungi, bacteria, viruses, phytoplasmas and nematodes - cause diseases of vegetable crops. For disease to occur, plant pathogens must come in contact with a susceptible host plant. Pathogens can be carried to the plants by various means, including wind, water, insects, infested seed, transplants, soil, animals and humans, alone or in combination. Favorable environmental conditions must be present for the plant pathogen to infect and thrive on the plants." -- first page
