Abstract
Lloyd was born in Charlottetown, P.E.I., and attended Prince of Wales College. Following graduation, he obtained a BS at McGill University (McDonald College) in 1956 and a PhD from the University of Wisconsin (Madison) in 1960. His PhD thesis was entitled ‘Variability in pathogenicity among isolates of Plasmodiophora brassicae’ and was conducted under the supervision of R.H. Larson. Some of the cytological results of his graduate studies were published in the journal Nature. He then joined V.R. Wallen’s soil pathogens group in 1960 at the Canada Department of Agriculture, at the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa, where he spent his career studying diseases of a wide variety of crops. Lloyd was also involved in the formation of the National Crop Loss Program initiated in the Branch in 1968. He retired from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in 1998.

期刊介绍:
Canadian Journal of Plant Pathology is an international journal which publishes the results of scientific research and other information relevant to the discipline of plant pathology as review papers, research articles, notes and disease reports. Papers may be submitted in English or French and are subject to peer review. Research articles and notes include original research that contributes to the science of plant pathology or to the practice of plant pathology, including the diagnosis, estimation, prevention, and control of plant diseases. Notes are generally shorter in length and include more concise research results. Disease reports are brief, previously unpublished accounts of diseases occurring on a new host or geographic region. Review papers include mini-reviews, descriptions of emerging technologies, and full reviews on a topic of interest to readers, including symposium papers. These papers will be highlighted in each issue of the journal and require prior discussion with the Editor-in-Chief prior to submission.
