On this site you can explore the interactions among plants, the diseases that harm them, and the people (like you!) who depend upon them. Here you can find resources on the biology, the history, the economic importance, and other aspects of plant diseases. You can do activities in the laboratory or the field to see how different forces of nature or actions of people affect the course of plant diseases. And you can have a dialogue with other people to learn how to use this site more effectively and to make it even better. So, come and explore the world of PLANTS, PATHOGENS, and PEOPLE!
