Australian Lucerne Yellows Disease — Pathogen, vector and control by G. Gurr et al. Australian lucerne yellows disease has a severe effect on seed production, frequently causing death of plants and reduced vigour in those that survive. The disease has led to the cutting or ploughing-under of seed crops, resulting in estimated losses of $7m annually to the industry. This comprehensive study investigates the pathogen and how it is transmitted, to underpin rational disease management approaches. 2005, 63pp, Pub. No. 05/033; $16
