Plant pathology is the science that studies plant diseases and aims to improve crop production effectively and safely. One promising approach includes conventional breeding and arable genetic engineering of disease-resistant plants. Plant pathology is therefore a preventive clinical plant science that combines a basic knowledge of physiology, biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and many other branches of science.
