A Colour Atlas of Post-harvest Diseases and Disorders of Fruits and Vegetables - Volume Two: Vegetables
Manson Publishing, July 2010, Pages: 417
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 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.
Key topics covered in Volume 2:
- Cucurbits
- Solanaceous Fruit Vegetables
- Miscellaneous Fruit Vegetables
- Legumes
- Brassicas
- Miscellaneous Flower, Stem and Leaf Vegetables
- Bulbs
- Temperate Roots and Tubers
- Tropical Roots and Tubers
Key features:
- Over 970 high-quality colour photographs and microscope drawings.
- Accessible text allowing use by a wide range of professionals and students
- Fully referenced plus key articles for further reading
- Useful appendices: Glossary, lexicon, storage charts
- Extensive index
Reviews:
'This is a text that demands careful use. So if you want to know more about blight, bacterial speck, ring rot, downy mildew, virus diseases, purple spot, white tip, sclerotium rot, powdery scab, silver scurf, soil rot or gangrene, then this is the book you need.'
Food Trades Review
'An authoritive, profusely illustrated guide... Volume 1 has already become a standard text.'
