he information on pest and disease management under protected cultivation of horticultural crops is very much scattered. There is no book at present which comprehensively and exclusively deals with the above aspects. This book deals with pests and diseases (fungal, bacterial, viral, and nematode) in protected horticultural crops (fruits, vegetables, and ornamentals) in detail using physical, cultural, chemical, biological, host resistance, and integrated methods. This book will be of immense value to the scientific community as a whole involved in teaching, research, and extension activities. The material can also be used for teaching postgraduate courses. The book can serve as a very useful reference for policy makers and practising farmers.
