Plant Virus, Vector

Stressing the key role vectors play in the spread of viral diseases, this volume explores a number of areas involved in plant virus research. It examines ways to control or manage viruses through a practical understanding of the interactions between viral vectors and their environment. Emphasizing the globalization of agriculture, it provides an in-depth understanding of vectors, discussing their biology, dispersal, movement and migration; contemporary canvases of epidemiology; management of viral diseases; and quarantine requirements to prevent the spread of agricultural viruses.

Stressing the key role vectors play spread of virus diseases, this volume represents the priorities in practical plant virus research and ways in which their control or management should be sought through an understanding of the practical and environmental aspects of the interactions of viruses with their vectors and their environment. It provides an in-depth understanding of the vectors, their biology, dispersal, movement and migration, contemporary canvases of epidemiology, and the management of virus diseases keeping in view the globalization of agriculture as also the viruses and their quarantine requirements.
