About the Book

The fungus heterobasidion annosum is, in economic terms, the most important casual agent of disease of yield loss in coniferous trees in northern temperate regions. Drawing on over 2000 research papers and books published from the early 19th century to the present day, this book collects and summarizes our knowledge of all aspects of this disease. It was prepared and published with support from DGXII of the European Union, under the Agriculture and Agro Industrial Research (AAIR) programme. This book offers a source of information for all those involved in the management of coniferous forests and plantations wishing to reduce the impact of this disease on yields.

Review :
"Heterobasidion annosum is a destructive root decay pathogen of temperate zone conifers worldwide, causing extensive growth loss and mortality. . . . With the exception of the first chapter on the historical aspects of H. annosum, the book is organized into four major parts that deal with biology, host resistance, disease control, and disease impact of this pathogen, in that order. Each of these parts consists of chapters written by well known H. annosum researchers, comprehensively addressing the topics pertaining to the respective chapters. . . . The illustrations and photographs in the book are well utilized to clarify points or procedures discussed in the text. . . . In conclusion, I believe this book to be a major contribution to forest pathology and particularly to the study of this pathogen. Students, researchers, and practitioners concerned with this root disease will find this book an asset."--ForestScience
