| THE COURSE GIVES THE KNOWLEDGE ON CONTROL OF DISEASES AFFECTING MEDICINAL PLANTS, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO BIOLOGICAL AND INTEGRATED CONTROL METHODS. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING: BASIC KNOWLEDGE ON CONTROL METHODS OF PLANT DISEASES; PRINCIPLES OF THE BIOLOGICAL AND INTEGRATED CONTROL OF PLANT DISEASES. APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING: PREVENTING AND/OR CONTROLLING DISEASES OF MEDICINAL PLANTS; IDENTIFY THE MOST EFFECTIVE METHODS AND MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS ON MANAGEMENT OF DISEASES BY USING ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY MEANS. |
| Prerequisites | |
|---|---|
| ACQUISITION OF KNOWLEDGE IN PLANT BIOLOGY, PHARMACEUTICAL BOTANY AND PLANT PATHOLOGY IS REQUIRED. |
| Contents | |

CONTROL METHODS THAT ERADICATE OR REDUCE PATHOGEN INOCULUM: CULTURAL METHODS, PHYSICAL METHODS, CHEMICAL METHODS AND BIOLOGICAL METHODS (SUPPRESSIVE SOILS, ANTAGONISTIC MICROORGANISMS, TRAP PLANTS, AND ANTAGONISTIC PLANTS). MECHANISMS OF ACTION OF BIOLOGICAL CONTROL. DISEASE CONTROL BY IMMUNIZING OR IMPROVING THE RESISTANCE OF THE HOST (CROSS PROTECTION, INDUCED RESISTANCE, IMPROVING THE GROWING CONDITIONS OF PLANTS, USE OF RESISTANT VARIETIES, CONTROL THROUGH USE OF TRANSGENIC PLANTS AND CONTROL THROUGH USE OF TRANSGENIC BIOCONTROL MICROORGANISMS). DIRECT PROTECTION OF PLANTS FROM PATHOGENS BY BIOLOGICAL CONTROLS. DIRECT PROTECTION BY CHEMICAL CONTROLS. INTEGRATED CONTROL. |
