Methods for detection of pathogens of cereal crops

Abstract

The article presents the structure of the cereal crop family and their main characteristics in accordance with APG-II, and considers existing types of pathogens affecting cereal crops. The main methods for detecting and identifying cereal crop pathogens that pose a threat to crop yields and food security are described, and their advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. The authors emphasize that no method can completely replace others, and an integrated approach combining several methods is recommended to improve the reliability of diagnostics. Such an integrated approach allows for more accurate and timely detection of pathogens, which is important for effective monitoring and management of plant diseases.
