6 Preface The present book entitled AN OBJECTIVE BOOK OF PLANT PATHOGENS combines a series of model papers which deals with brief introduction about plant pathogens, basic concepts and terminology in Mycology, Bacteriology, Virology and it is also includes recent fungal classification (Kirk et al. 2008). This book has been to cover the various courses offered by Indian Universities and it is mainly helpful for graduate and postgraduate students for various SAUs exams and other competitive examinations like SRF, JRF, NET and ARS conducted by ICAR. I feel immense pleasure in taking this opportunity of expressing my profound, humble indebtedness and deepest sense of gratitude and thanks towards my Honorable Chairman Dr. G. K. Giri, Associate Professor, Plant Pathology, PGI, Dr. P. D. K. V Akola for his valuable guidance to prepare this book. It is my proud privilege to express my deep sense of gratitude towards Dr. S.S. Mane, Dr. R. M. Gade and Dr. R.W. Ingle, Department of Plant Pathology, Post graduate Institute, Dr. P. D. K. VAkola. ***** - (C. ASHWINI) v
