Reviews

'The work is an excellent and advanced textbook on resistance mechanisms to plant diseases and host-pathogen interactions. In addition to the scientific value of individual chapters, the highly didactic approach taken is of benefit. The book can therefore, be used not only by researchers but also advanced students of biology and agriculture focused on plant pathology. Authors, editors and publishers are to be recommended for an excellent piece of work.' Plant Protection Science, 37:4 (2001)
