The Diseases of Tropical Plants (Classic Reprint) by Melville Thurston Cook Pdf
Excerpt from The Diseases of Tropical Plants The very rapid development of plant pathology during the past few years and the increasing interest in tropical agriculture have led the writer to prepare this introductory work on the Diseases of Tropical Plants. An extensive study of the fungi, bacteria, and other organisms which cause the diseases of plants was a necessary preliminary to the development of plant pathology, and the progress in this subject has been much more rapid in the north temperate zone than in the tropics. In the past few years, however, there has been a great awakening of interest in these studies throughout both the eastern and western tropics. Nevertheless, the literature is scattered, frequently indefinite in character, and presents an abundance of difficulties to the student at the present time. While gathering material for this book, one correspondent wrote that the time had not yet come when it was possible for any one to write a work on the diseases of tropical plants. The writer is now ready to agree with this gentleman, and to add that it is doubtful if the time will ever come when any one author can adequately treat of the tropics of the entire world and their plant diseases.
