Plant Pathology and Biotechnology: Choosing Your Weapons
Vol. 30 (1992), pp. 1–15More LessIn this chapter I trace some threads of personal history and comment on the nature of host resistance and pathogen virulence, aspects of plant pathology that have interested me for most of my career. Basic research in plant pathology is more fashionable, and certainly more fundable, than in the days when practical considerations of disease control dominated the work of most plant pathologists. There is still a great deal of this basic research to do. Satisfying your curiosity is fun, but if you can do something useful for society at the same time it is even more rewarding.

Thomas J. Burrill, Pioneer in Plant Pathology
Vol. 30 (1992), pp. 17–25More LessPerhaps no other American plant pathologist is so deserving of the title “Pioneer of Plant Pathology” as Thomas J. Burrill. A product of the American frontier and a researcher and teacher of plant pathology before the science even had a name, Burrill was a pioneer in every sense of the word. His original research on the cause of fire blight resulted in the first major conceptual advance in plant pathology made by an American. He also played an important role as an administrator and teacher at the University of Illinois. Many of the problems Burrill faced during his long and distinguished career will sound familiar to academic scientists of our own time. In particular, he and his contemporaries contended with student unrest, flagging public interest in higher education, heavy teaching loads, and insufficient support for research activities. By any measure, Burrill was unusually successful in coping with these problems and he fashioned a career remarkable in its contributions to his university, the public, and the scientific community.
