Full Description
Defence mechanisms against fungi in bark, xylem, roots, and foliage of woody angiosperms and gymnosperms are addressed in this newest addition to the "Springer Series in Wood Science". The topic is approached from an anatomical and physiological angle, with emphasis on the relationships between plant structure and function and their role in defensive reactions and wound repair. Contributions on the biochemistry of defensive reactions, in-depth treatises on specific diseases such as Dutch elm disease, and Fusiform rust of pines, as well as chapters on wound reactions in bark tissues, microenvironmental aspects of xylem decay, the role of mycorrhizal fungi in defence, physiological responses of trees to fungal symbionts of insects, and the application of tissue culture and immunocytochemistry to the study of defense mechanisms in trees are included.
