Plant Disease Management Techniques

Plant Disease Management Techniques is a research topic within Plant Science. Science Explorer counts 16k research works in it since 1950. 10.1% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers explores the advances in vegetable grafting techniques, including the use of grafting to improve tolerance to abiotic stresses, manage soilborne pathogens, enhance fruit quality, and promote disease resistance. It also delves into the mechanisms of rootstock-scion interactions, hormonal signaling, and genetic exchange in grafted plants. Additionally, the cluster discusses alternative strategies for soil disinfestation and the impact of grafting on plant responses to various environmental stressors.
