Excerpt from Diseases of Plants: Induced by Cryptogamic Parasites Introduction to the Study of Pathogenic Fungi, Slime-Fungi, Bacteria,& Algae In my research work, and in connection with uiy lectures at the University and Technical School of Munich, I have for some time felt convinced that there existed a very evident gap in the literature relating to the diseases of plants. There was need of a newer and more complete work on cryptogamic parasites and the diseases induced by them on higher plants, a work furnished with many accurate illustrations, with a survey of the newer literature, aud with a general part wherein parasitism and the relations between parasite and host are discussed from a botanical standpoint Therefore, I have undertaken to write a book intended to supply in some degree this pressing want. Here the attempt has been made for the first time to review in a general and comparative manner the biological, physiological, and anatomical relationships accompanying the phenomena of parasitism. Already De Bary has considered the varying degrees of parasitism and the phenomena of symbiosis in bis celebrated Morphology and Biology of the Fungi; while Wakker has laid the foundations of our knowledge of the alterations in the anatomy of plants diseased by the agency of fungi, more especially, however, those alterations accompanying 'hypertrophy.' I venture to continue this difficult and comprehensive chapter of plant physiology, because for ten years I have devoted my time to the study of plant pathology. The book may be all the more acceptable since I have confirmed a large number of the observations and added the results of my own investigations, many of them now published for the first time. The present time is favourable to my work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Diseases of Plants: Induced by Cryptogamic Parasites Introduction to the Study of Pathogenic Fungi, Slime-Fungi, Bacteria,& Algae In my labours I received great assistance from the following sources: F rom the collection of pathological material begun by Professor Robert Hartig, and now carried on with my help in the Botanical Institute of the Royal Bavarian School of Forestry in Munich; from the facilities for research and photography afforded by the laboratories of the same institution; from the Royal Library of Munich, the Library of the University, and the private pathological library of Professor Hartig.
