Summary "Disease in Plants" by H. Marshall Ward is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This book delves into the understanding of plant diseases, focusing specifically on the symptoms they exhibit and the nature of the maladies, while providing insights that will be valuable for cultivators and agriculturalists. The author aims to convey complex biological processes and disease interventions in a manner that is accessible to practitioners who may not be specialists in botany or pathology. The opening of the text presents a preface where the author outlines his intention to focus on the practical concerns of plant cultivators regarding the diseases affecting their crops rather than on the detailed biological mechanisms behind these diseases. He empathizes with the need for cultivators to understand the symptoms and potential cures without delving deeply into the underlying scientific intricacies. Ward emphasizes that while a complete understanding of plant diseases requires knowledge of all factors involved—such as the biology of pathogens and environmental considerations—his essays will center on the visible consequences and necessary actions for cultivating healthy plants. He encourages further exploration into the scientific aspects while providing a foundation for practical application. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
