This is a glossary of over 1000 terms used in Plant Pathology - the
study of Plant Diseases. It covers terms in use in the current editions
of the different internationally mandated and proposed books. Any
abbreviations, latinizations and synonyms are incorporated, as are terms
which are either no longer employed, are used outside the formal
nomenclatural Codes, or are otherwise likely to be encountered. As some
of the terms used in the classification of plant communities are
identical to those of whole organisms, terms used in phytosociological
nomenclature are also included. It is intended for use as a reference
work by all biologists, especially those involved with the description
or re- classification of organisms, as well as those investigating the
status and application of previously proposed names.
