Abstract

Economic importance and losses, symptoms/damage, pre-disposing factors, epidemiology, survival and spread, and biointensive integrated management of insect and mite pests, fungal, bacterial, viral/mycoplasma diseases, nematode pests, and disease complexes of ornamental crops (rose, carnation, gerbera, gladiolus, tuberose, chrysanthemum, and crossandra) using physical, cultural, chemical, botanicals, bioagents, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and host resistance are discussed.
