The demand for innovative methods for disease control is strong, but better use of old, neglected methods is equally justified. Control programs that integrate disease-free seed, good cultural practices, resistant varieties, and fungicides should all be coordinated where possible with application of thermosanitation that will destroy primary inoculum for maximum disease control and maximum yields. Judicious use of the age-old and time-honored practices of prescribed burning should continue to be a legitimate part of tree, food, and fiber culture, especially as high-intensity management for maximum production becomes mandatory by the needs of an ever-increasing world population.Abstract reproduced with permission from the Annual Review of Phytopathology, Volume 14 ©1976 by Annual Reviews.
