Plant Disease
An International Journal of Applied Plant Pathology
 Purpose and Scope:
Plant Disease is the leading international journal for rapid
reporting of research on new diseases, epidemics, and methods of disease
control. It covers basic and applied research, which focuses on
practical aspects of disease diagnosis and treatment. Feature articles summarize current information on specific diseases. The popular
Disease Notes section contains brief and timely reports of new diseases, new disease outbreaks, new hosts, and pertinent new observations of plant diseases and pathogens worldwide.
The online version of Plant Disease includes interpretive
summaries and e-Xtra articles that include supplemental data
tables and additional figures and photos as well as color versions of
illustrations shown in black and white in the print journals.
Plant Disease ranked in the top 10 journals for impact on
research and teaching efforts in the crop sciences according to
Literature of Crop Science, a project published by Cornell
University press. Plant Disease received the Neographics Franklin
Award for Excellence in Graphic Design.
Intended Readership:
Agronomists, bacteriologists, biochemists, biologists, botanists,
cell biologists, chemists, ecologists, entomologists, foresters,
geneticists, horticulturists, microbiologists, molecular biologists,
mycologists, nematologists, plant pathologists, plant physiologists,
seed pathologists, soil scientists, virologists, and weed scientists.
