About this title

Synopsis

Smiley (Oregon State U.) and co-authors provide a comprehensive reference to the diseases affecting turfgrass, with emphasis on those occuring in North America and Europe, and with exclusion of diseases of inflorescences and culms. The volume is aimed primarily at professionals such as garden center personnel, county extension agents, and landscape architects, including those who may lack formal training in plant pathology. It is well illustrated throughout with color photographs and includes a glossary. Annotation 2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Review

...succeeds as a general, practical reference for all those engaged in maintaining fine turf... laid out clearly and logically ...wonderfully clear descriptions and definitions...throughout the text the language is helpful, clear and concise...if you are connected to the turf industry, or to professional horticultural extension or advisory services in any way, this Compendium represents a unique and invaluable high-quality reference text at a relatively modest price. --Journal of Horticulture

The compendium will be very useful to all those involved in the management of turfgrass. It could also be helpful to teachers as it reports rather uncommon diseases that may not be covered by more general books on plant pathology. --Nematologia Mediterranea

This book would suit any level of knowledge from the most experienced pathologist to the teenager just beginning his training in turfgrass managementâ� ¦truly a well-written, well-illustrated and very up-to-date bookâ� ¦very much the diagnosticians bible...if you can only afford one plant disease book, this is the one. --European Journal of Plant Pathology
