Acknowledgments

First, I thank three former supervisors at the University of Tokyo, Dr. Kiyoshi Yora, the late Dr. Yoji Doi and Dr. Shuichi Yamashita. With their guidance, I found my passion in plant pathology. I thank the late Dr. Keiichi Tomaru and Dr. Takao Kobayashi for their constant, strong support in the continuation my research, and Drs. B. D. Harrison and Lesley Torrance of The Scottish Crop Research Institute (SCRI) for their supervision during and after my short stay at SCRI. With happy memories of research tours and experiments with many undergraduate and postgraduate students at TUA, in particular, thanks go to Drs. D. G. Alvindia, N. Furuya, B. S. Daryono, Y. Hirooka, M. Chikh Ali, Kim Ok-Kyung and M. S. Pinili, and to two postdoctoral fellows, Drs. K. Baghalian and M. S. Shahid for their contribution to these studies. I will never forget the farmers and collaborators who kindly shared their knowledge and wisdom with me. Finally, I thank my family for their continuous support throughout my research.
