About the Journal

The Journal of Plant Disease Sciences is the official publication of the Association of Plant Pathologists, housed within the Department of Plant Pathology, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola (M.S.). The journal serves as a dedicated platform for publishing research in Mycology and Plant Pathology, adhering to the constitution and bylaws of the society.

It features peer-reviewed research articles, reviews, and short communications covering various aspects of plant disease management, host-pathogen interactions, epidemiology, disease diagnostics, and sustainable agricultural practices. The journal primarily publishes work by association members but is open to contributions from the broader scientific community.

Committed to maintaining high academic and ethical standards, the Journal of Plant Disease Sciences aims to advance scientific knowledge in plant pathology while supporting agricultural sustainability and crop protection.
