This book will awaken the interest of breeders, phytopathologists,
environmentalists, extension services, plant virologists,
entomologists and molecular biologists. It deals both with the
epidemiological aspects of the disease and with integrated pest
management in the field. It discusses the efforts aimed at breeding
tomato plants resistant to the virus (using classical breeding,
marker-assisted breeding and genetic engineering). It summarizes
the techniques used for diagnosis, eradication and certification
and emphasizes the problems inherent to the control of the virus
insect vector, the use of pesticides and the resistance acquired by
the insects, the appearance of new whitefly biotypes with
previously unknown characteristics, and the complex relations
between virus, vector and plant host.
