Résumé : | The purpose of this revised and updated Compendium of Pea Diseases and Pests is to provide an authoritative, comprehensive, practical reference to aid in the identification and control of infectious and noninfectious diseases and insects of pea. The first edition was published 15 years ago and clearly needed to be updated. This second edition contains contributions by both U.S. and international researchers with many years of expertise in working with pea diseases. Thus, the compendium is international in scope and practical in emphasis. Almost all of the original contributors to the first edition are now either retired or deceased. Regrettably, all diseases and maladies known to infect or limit the production of pea could not be covered in this text. A decision had to be made as to what to include and exclude. For example, Orobanche infection of pea, which is prevalent in the Mediterranean production areas of southern France, Spain, and Northern Africa and is extremely important in those areas, is not covered. Fungal and viral diseases of minor importance are covered in a table and in a short paragraph, respectively. New and extensive coverage is given to herbicide and insect-feeding injury, fertilizer deficiencies and toxicities, seed vigor, and seed health, all of which were not covered to any extent in the first edition and that pose significant and recurring threats to pea production and quality. Also included is updated information on pea-pathogenic viral and bacterial genomes, diagnosis, and sources of resistance to viral diseases. This compendium should be useful for extension and advisory plant pathologists, pea growers, seedsmen, production specialists, diagnostic clinicians, students, regulatory agents, crop consultants, agribusiness representatives, educators, researchers, and those interested in the identification and manage-ment of pea diseases worldwide. The pea plant, its origin, and characteristics are described in the introduction. Also described are plant diseases and causal agents in general. Information on seed vigor and seed-transmitted diseases of pea is presented in Part 1. Seedling diseases caused by fungi are then described. Next, root rot and wilt are described, with their respective causal agents, disease epidemiology, and control. Finally, the foliar, fungal, bacterial, and viral diseases are described, as are their respective disease epidemiologies and control. Noninfectious diseases are discussed in Part II. These include injury caused by the various classes of herbicides used and not used in pea production; insect-feeding injury and processed pea insect contamination; mineral deficiencies and toxicities; and problems associated with air pollution, frost, hail, lightning, and water congestion. The control measures recommended for both infectious and noninfectious diseases are general in nature because detailed recommendations on pesticides, chemicals, and resistant cultivars are quickly outdated. For more details and specific control measures, interested readers should co ntact appropriate extension or advisory plant pathologists or locally applicable literature. Each infectious or noninfectious disease section includes a list of selected pertinent references to provide more detailed information. Most of these references contain bibliographies of other research publications on the pea disease in question. |
