What is Plant Pathology?

It encompasses fundamental biology as well as applied agricultural sciences.
The study of plant diseases is known as plant pathology. Infectious diseases are caused by living organisms called pathogens. Noninfectious diseases caused by environmental stress and damage by weather and other environmental factors also will be covered.ndirectly, environmental factors that cause a plant to be stressed may result in the plant's gradual decline.
