PHYTOPHTHORA DISEASES OF LEGUMES (A REVIEW)
Аннотация
<em>Damping-off, root and/or stem blights caused by oomycetes of the Phytophthora genus are one of the most important groups of the most destructive diseases of cultivated plants, in particular legume crops. More than 15 species of this genus can infect species of beans, mungbean, soybean, cowpea and other legumes. No one of these species have been registered on legumes in Uzbekistan, but in our country, there are some other species of the genus that affect other crops (potatoes, tomatoes), so the danger of their accidental introduction into the territory of the republic is not excluded. The information provided in the article will allow specialists to get to know this group of diseases more closely and preliminarily to identify their causal agents if they are met within our country.</em>
