进入21世纪以来,生命科学迅速发展,生物技术的发展更是突飞猛进,植物保护学科也出现****的新局面,出现了许多惊人的新成果,引起了学术界的极大关注,同时在数字化的信息时代,由于英语作为一门国际性交流语言和工具,使得许多科技成果都要借助英语进行表述和交流,掌握和了解这些*新成果和应用前景,非常必要和重要。到目前为止,查新未见有正式的植物保护专业英语导读出版,为此我们编选了这本《植物保护专业英语导读》,以飨读者。
《植物保护专业英语导读》精选了植物保护学科植物病理学、昆虫学和植物化学保护三个方面不同深度专业论著或论文,深入浅出地阐述该技术领域基础知识和科研成果,有助于读者提高专业英语理解、阅读及写作水平,起到向导的作用。
为了更好地学习科学知识和科技英语,全书分为PART A、PART B和PART C三大部分,每一单元我们精选15篇左右材料,每篇附有详细的单词、短语注释和参考译文。《植物保护专业英语导读》适合研究生、本科学生作为专业英语教材使用,也是科技人员的重要参考资料。
《植物保护专业英语导读》是集体劳动的结晶,在编写《植物保护专业英语导读》时,我们采用专业教师和英语教师结合。专业教

Biology of Soilborne Pathogens
Survival.A soilborne pathogen's ability to survive in soil depends in part on the biological group to which it belongs.Few bacterial pathogens are true.10ng-term soil inhabitants;most sur。 vive for limited periods as saprobes on plant debris or roots,or directly in the soil.These species’ bacterial cells do not produce resilient endospores and the vegetative cells are not particularly re- silient in adverse environments.Some species survive by secreting slimy material that dries to form Drotective layers around the cells,enabling them to withstand unfavorable conditions.
Fungal pathogens survive in soil as saprobes on host plant debris or on other types of organic matter present in soil,or as free.1iving organisms living directly in the soil.Many of these fungi Droduce resilient survival structures on organic materials;the structures are released into the soil by tillage operations and through decomposition of the infected material.Survival structures can withstand low or high temperature extremes,dry conditions,and periods when no suitable host is Dresent.Environmental factors,however,may affect how long the survival structures remain Via。 ble.The sclerotia of some root.infecting pathogens can be sensitive to desiccation.Low soil temper· atures can be detrimental to pathogens that are adapted to warmer conditions.Such conditions can limit the development of pathogens such as Macrophomina phaseolina on beans and Sclerotium rolfsii on various crops.Distribution of pathogens in soil.The horizontal and vertical distribution of soil.borne pathogens depends on production practices,cropping history,and a variety of other factors.Along a vertical axis.the inoculum of most root pathogens lies within the top 1 0 inches of the soil profile,the layers where host roots and tissues and other organic sub strates are found.On the horizontal plane.distribution of inoculum in a field is usually aggregated in ar
