Applied Plant Virology: Advances, Detection, and Antiviral Strategies provides an overview on recent developments and applications in the field of plant virology. The book begins with an introduction to important advances in plant virology, but then covers topics including techniques for assay detection and the diagnosis of plant viruses, the purification, isolation and characterization of plant viruses, the architecture of plant viruses, the replication of plant viruses, the physiology of virus-infected hosts, vectors of plant viruses, and the nomenclature and classification of plants. The book also discusses defense strategies by utilizing antiviral agents and management strategies of virus and viroid diseases.

With contributions from an international collection of experts, this book presents a practical resource for plant virologists, plant pathologists, horticulturalists, agronomists, biotechnologists, academics and researchers interested in up-to-date technologies and information that advance the field of plant virology.

Covers the detection, control and management of plant viruses Discusses antiviral strategies, along with mechanisms of systemic induced resistance to enhance the defense of plants against viruses Provides contributory chapters from expert plant virologists from different parts of the world

Introduction to General Virology provides a broad overview of the fundamental and applied aspects of virology. The book covers milestones in the development of virology, the general properties of viruses, morphology, genome organization and genetics, replication strategies and taxonomy. The remaining parts cover specific types of viruses, the properties, classification, structural organization, and lifecycle of bacteriophages, select human and animal viruses, plant virology, plant virus classification, nomenclature, disease symptoms, transmission, detection and diagnosis, management and control. This book is an informative, introductory resource for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, professors, or researchers entering virology, microbiology and infectious diseases.Provides an overview on the development of virology, properties of viruses, morphology, taxonomy, genome organization, viral genetics and replication strategiesCovers both the fundamental and applied aspects of animal, human, bacterial, insect and plant virologyDiscusses select infectious diseases caused by viruses such as Ebola, Zika, Coronaviruses, HIV and Oncoviruses

Viral Diseases of Field and Horticultural Crops details the fundamental and applied aspects of the viral diseases of field and horticultural crops. The book opens with a historical introduction to plant virology, important plant virologists, and landmarks. It continues with systematic coverage of viral diseases, their economic significance, disease symptoms, host range, mode of transmission, diagnostic techniques, geographic distribution, epidemiology, yield losses, and control and management of the disease. Contributions from an international group of virologists with a wide range of academic, research, professional, and specialized backgrounds in plant virology makes Viral Diseases of Field and Horticultural Crops a comprehensive and must-have resource for those engaged in the study and research of plant virology, microbiology, and plant pathology particularly viral diseases and their impact on field and horticultural crops. Provides virus characterization according to the disease pattern and symptoms they cause Covers viral diseases of cereals, oil seeds, legumes, commercial crops, spices and condiments, medicinal and aromatic crops, forage crops, vegetable crops, fruit crops, tree nuts, among others Discusses advances like applications in nanotechnology, molecular techniques for the detection and characterization of plant viruses, and the development of technologies for detecting plant viruses
