The Third Asian Conference on Plant Pathology

The 1st Asian Conference on Plant Pathology was held in Beijing, China in the Year 2000 while the
second conference was held in Singapore in 2005. The principal aim of the conference is to create a
forum for Asian plant pathologists who are interested in or related to scientific work, information or
