Overview

Plant pathology is the study of diseases that affect plants. It involves understanding the causes of diseases, how they spread, and how to manage them. Plant diseases can significantly reduce crop yields and cause environmental damage, so it is important to understand how to identify, control and prevent them. Plant pathology research includes developing new treatments and diagnostic tools, such as genetic engineering, plant breeding, and genetic diagnosis techniques. Plant pathologists regularly come into contact with scientists from other disciplines, such as plant breeders and agronomists, in order to better understand how to improve crop yields and the environment.
