Features: Under the market economy conditions, the variety of pesticides is updated rapidly, and the production of cash crops develops quickly. Especially with the popularity of green food, people pay more and more attention to integrated pest management and biological control, particularly focusing on using high-efficiency, low-toxicity pesticides for chemical control. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately identify various plant diseases and insect pests, then take targeted measures for control, ensuring that the pesticides effectively eliminate pests and cure diseases. This set of illustrated guides was organized by the Institute of Plant Protection of the Guangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences and compiled by agricultural plant protection experts. It is divided into separate volumes based on crop varieties, including rice, corn, wheat, sugarcane, vegetables, citrus, longan and lychee, bananas, and pineapples. This set adopts a "text and illustration" comparative format to introduce the morphological characteristics, pathogens, occurrence patterns, and control methods of plant diseases and insect pests. The color illustrations are aesthetically pleasing and lifelike, while the text is easy to understand. The descriptions of morphological characteristics are accurate, and the occurrence patterns and control methods are straightforward to grasp. Readers can identify and determine the types of plant diseases and insect pests in the field by comparing real samples with the illustrations and then find effective control methods from the book.
