2016-09-01
Abstract excerpt
With increasing problems of decreased efficacy, toxicity and environmental degradation due to the use of chemical fungicides, there is urgent need for developing alternative strategies for managing crop diseases. One approach currently being explored is the application of safe organic‐based compounds to prime the defence systems of plants in order to prevent or limit infections by pathogens. Chitosan, a deacylated...
