| Rapid and accurate diagnosis of plant diseases and pests is essential for the work of extension service personnel and instructors. Identification at genus or species level is a crucial prerequisite for making decisions on how to handle a plant health problem. The students learn: - how to diagnose commonly occurring plant diseases and pests using simple practical methods - how to identify pest species from their morphology, host and host symptoms -how to identify pathogenic fungi, bacteria and virus from their pathogen morphology, host and host symptoms - how to describe and characterise damage in the field and how to take a sample for further study | |||||||||||||
