Herbert Hice Whetzel was born on September 5, 1877 on his father's farm near Avilla, Ind. , the oldest of six children (three boys and three girls) of Joseph Conrad Whetzel and Gertrude (Eckles) Whetzel. His father, of German ancestry and a native of Pennsylvania, was descended from John Wetzel, a brother of Lewis Wetzel, the famous eighteenth-century scout and Indian fighter. Herbert's mother, of Scotch-Irish and Dutch descent, was a native of Ohio. He was reared as a Presbyterian.
Whetzel received his early education at a rural school and at the Avilla high school. After teaching in a country school for two years, he entered Wabash College, where he majored in botany and graduated in 1902. He then began graduate work at Cornell University under the mycologist George F. Atkinson. He received honorary degrees from Wabash College (1931) and the University of Puerto Rico (1926).
In 1906, before he could complete his work for the doctorate, Dean Liberty Hyde Bailey of Cornell's College of Agriculture appointed Whetzel assistant professor and head of the new department of agricultural botany, the name of which was changed the following year to department of plant pathology. In accepting the appointment Whetzel became ineligible for a degree at Cornell, and hence never received a Ph. D. ; he was nevertheless promoted in 1909 to professor. As department chairman, Whetzel gave considerable time to organizational and procedural matters. He resigned the post in 1922 in order to give younger men in the department an opportunity to advance, and thereafter devoted himself to teaching and research. Whetzel was a dynamic and innovative teacher. In 1909 he developed an industrial fellowship plan under which commercial and growers' organizations provided direct financial assistance to graduate students, who conducted experiments under actual field conditions on plant disease problems affecting agriculture in New York. He also devised a new method of instruction in his elementary course in plant pathology. Though a stimulating lecturer, he became dissatisfied with conventional teaching methods and instead had each student choose from a group of plant diseases one in which he was especially interested. No time limit was set, but at the conclusion of his investigation the student was required, in an individual conference, to demonstrate his knowledge of the specific disease and its relationship to general principles of plant pathology. Whetzel also sought to serve his students by organizing the subject matter of phytopathology and developing more precise terminology. In research, Whetzel's early efforts were chiefly devoted to practical problems. He wrote numerous papers on plant disease control, and as a member of Cornell's extension staff he counseled farmers throughout the state on the use and advantages of various new fungicides. By temperament, however, he was a naturalist, and he devoted an increasing amount of time to mycology (the study of fungi), collecting specimens on field trips to various parts of North and South America. He soon acquired an extensive collection, which in later years formed the nucleus of the plant pathology herbarium at Cornell. He early became interested in sclerotium-producing fungi, especially those in the genera Botrytis and Sclerotinia. On the latter, beginning in 1926, he published a series of taxonomic papers in which he described the condial, spermatial, and sclerotial stages, as well as the pathogenicity and life history of different species. He died of cancer at his home in Ithaca, N. Y. , and was buried there in Lake View Cemetery.
Though he did not live long enough to complete the general monograph he had planned, his researches on the family Sclerotiniaceae, to which he devoted the last twenty-five years of his life, represent a major contribution to the field of plant pathology. Active in professional organizations, Whetzel was president of the American Phytopathological Society (1915) and of the Mycological Society of America (1939), and from 1911 to 1913 was an editor of Phytopathology.

On May 17, 1904, he had married Lucy Ethel Baker of Avilla, Ind. , by whom he had two children, Lucy Gertrude and Joseph Conrad. Two years after the death of his first wife, he married, on June 10, 1914, Bertha A. Baker, also of Avilla.
