Traditional and current-prospective methods of agricultural plant diseases detection: A review

Abstract As it is known, a significant part of the yield agricultural crops lost due to harmful organisms, including diseases. The article reveals data on widespread types plant diseases (rot, wilting, deformation, formation tumors, pustules, etc.) and their symptoms. Early identification pathogen type infection high significance for disease control. Various methods are used diagnose pathogens plant. This discusses review literature traditional diagnosis pathogens, such as visual observation, microscopy, mycological analysis, biological diagnostics or use indicator plants. Rapid reliable detection its first most important stage in cause allows timely selection proper protection method ensures prevention crop losses. There number identifying diseases, however, order ensure promptness reliability diagnostics, well eliminate shortcomings inherent recent years, new means technologies have been developed introduced into practice. provides information innovative which widely world today, immunodiagnostics, molecular-genetic (and phylogenetic) identification, mass spectrometry, etc.
