Diagnosis of Plant Virus Diseases presents a comprehensive summary of methods currently available for the diagnosis of plant diseases caused by viruses and viroids. Up-to-date literature references are provided, brief accounts of the basis for particular methods are included, and detailed protocols are presented. Procedures discussed include the use of host plants, electron microscopy of in vitro preparations, serological procedures (especially forms of ELISA, monoclonal antibodies, serological specific electron microscopy, and immunoblotting), and nucleic acid hybridization procedures. Strategies are outlined for implicating virus-like pathogens as causes of diseases of unknown etiology, and problems involved in identifying complexes of transmission-dependent and helper viruses are discussed. The book will be extremely useful for phytopathologists, plant virologists, and research students and workers in plant virology laboratories and diagnostic plant pathology laboratories.
The overall aim of this volume is to review critically the current state of, and future prospects for developments in viral taxonomy.Most of the contributors to this volume have had substantial period of service on the Executive Committee and sub-committees of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV).
Fundamentals of Plant Virology is an introductory student text
covering all of modern plant virology. The author, Dr. R.E.F.
Matthews, has written this coursebook based on his classic and
comprehensive Plant Virology, Third Edition. Four introductory
chapters review properties of viruses and cells and techniques used
in their study. Five chapters are devoted to current knowledge of
all major plant viruses and related pathogens. Seven chapters
describe biological properties such as transmission, host response,
disease, ecology, control, classification, and evolution of plant
viruses. A historical and future overview concludes the text.
Fundamentals of Plant Virology is a carefully designed
instructional format for a plant virology course. It is also an
invaluable resource for students of plant pathology and plant
molecular biology.
