Research Trends and Innovations in Plant Pathology (Volume - 2), edited by Dr. Agale Ramdas Chandrabhan, explores emerging breakthroughs in plant disease management and sustainable agriculture through eight comprehensive chapters. Key themes include the beneficial role of rhizosphere microorganisms, endophytes as biocontrol agents, transgenic plant resistance to viral diseases, nematophagous bacteria, nematode detection tools, virus localization in insect vectors, modern fungal taxonomy, and RNA interference in plant pathology. This volume bridges classical plant pathology with molecular techniques and biotechnological tools to present eco-friendly and efficient solutions for disease suppression. Through in-depth research and practical applications, it equips plant pathologists, students, and agri-biotech professionals with knowledge vital for crop protection, improved diagnostics, and enhanced plant resilience. An essential read for those exploring sustainable strategies and molecular innovations in plant disease control.
