The theory and practice of modem plant protection are the important parts of sustainableagriculture. It is the main basis to obtain modem theory and technology of plant protection forthe development of no public pollution and ecological agriculture in developing countries .

With the changes of climate, environment, planting structure and cultivation methods, the occurrences of plant diseases is on the trend of rise, which certainly will influence on agricultural production, security, body health, biological environment and the sustainable development of agriculture. Our objective to sponsor this training course is to introduce advanced plant protection theory and technology to developing countries,strengthen disease resistance capability and increase food production. This textbook consists of twenty articles which cover Plant Disease Epidemiology, History and Prospects of Detection and Control of Plant Virus Disease,Creating Confidence in SPS Systems, Applications of Biotechnology to Plant Protection, Plant Disease ResistanceGene, Integrated Weed Management in Sustainable Agriculture, etc. Specialists in the field of plant protection could get a general view of plant protection development in China via this book. Also, it could be taken as reference for students and teachers from agricultural universities.
