Foreword
Biological science research has made significant and tremendous developments during the first two
decades of the twenty-first century; affiliated researchers incessantly provide required solutions to
complex biological systems every day. However, some of the biological activities remain in unan-
swered categories and their effects are simply exposed in other biological systems including human
health and economic status. The primary producers of plant systems are linked with all other bio-
logical systems, such as positive and negative effects in plants, which affect the food systems of
the herbivores as well as the carnivores. Plant diseases caused by many biotic and abiotic particles,
particularly biotic particles of virus, bacteria, phytoplasma, fungi, nematode, and insects, are dev-
astating crop yields globally at massive levels. These diseases reduce yields, lower the quality of
human life, and the nutritional value of plant products; the plant pathogenic bacterial role is crucial
among plant pathogens.
Globally, many plant pathological researchers take this kind of challenging task on their
shoulders to provide solid solutions. In this context, I am proud to introduce this book entitled
Sustainable Approaches on Controlling Plant Pathogenic Bacteria, edited by Dr. Velu Rajesh
Kannan (Bharathidasan University, India) and Dr. Kubilay Kurtulus Bastas (Selçuk University,
Turkey), published by CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, USA, to researchers and readers. Both
editors deserve high praise and their extensive contributions to agricultural research since the turn
of the millenium, particularly in plant growth and development highlighting microbial sources, are
exemplary. In fact, this book will be yet another feather in their cap.
This book contains twenty chapters. Each chapter focuses on different aspects in the exploration
of plant pathogenic bacteria, such as pathogenesis, epidemiology, and forecasting, various mecha-
nisms and controlling strategies, application methods, and their toxic molecules impact on consum-
ers. I strongly believe that this book will be a keystone of plant pathology in agricultural fields. I
congratulate Dr. Rajesh Kannan and Dr. Bastas, and all the contributors for their arduous efforts in
producing this volume.
