    Abstract: This book represents a new, completely updated, version of a book edited by two of the current editors, published with Springer in 1999. It covers pest and disease management of greenhouse crops, providing readers the basic strategies and tactics of integrated control together with its implementation in practice, with case studies with selected crops. The diversity of editors and authors provides readers a complete picture of the world situation of IPM in greenhouse crops. .

    Description: For over a half a century, researchers have been aware of the fact that the physical and chemical characteristics of microenvironments in soils strongly influence the activity, growth and metabolism of microorganisms. However, many aspects of the effect of soil physical characteristics, such as the pore geometry, remain poorly understood. Therefore, the objective of the present research was to determine the influence of soil pore characteristics on the spread of bacteria, observed at the scale relevant to microbes. Pseudomonas fluorescens was introduced in columns filled with 1–2 mm soil aggregates, packed at different bulk densities. Soil microcosms were scanned at 10.87 μm voxel resolution using X-ray computed tomography (CT) to characterize the geometry of pores. Thin sections were prepared to determine the spread and colonization of bacteria. The results showed that average bacterial cell density was 174 cells mm−2 in soil with bulk density of 1.3 g cm−3 and 99 cells mm−2 in soil with bulk density of 1.5 g cm−3. Soil porosity and solid-pore interfaces influence the spread of bacteria and their colonization of the pore space at lower bulk density, resulting in relatively higher bacterial densities in larger pore spaces. The study also demonstrates that thin sectioning of resin-impregnated soil samples can be combined with X-ray CT to visualize bacterial colonization of a 3D pore volume. This research therefore represents a significant step towards understanding how environmental change and soil management impact bacterial diversity in soils. Highlights: We used a quantitative approach to study bacterial spread in soil at scales relevant to microbes. The rate of pseudomonas spread decreased with increased bulk density of soil. Soil porosity and soil-pore interface influence Pseudomonas in lower bulk density soil. Soil structure with different pore characteristics effects spread and activity of bacteria in soil.
