Viroids and Satellites

Viroids and Satellites describes plant diseases and their causal agents while also addressing the economic impact of these diseases. The book discusses various strategies for state-of-the-art methods for the detection and control of pathogens in their infected hosts and provides pivotal information from the discovery of viroids through the analysis of their molecular and biological properties, to viroid pathogenesis, host interactions, and RNA silencing pathways. Students, researchers and regulators will find this to be a comprehensive resource on the topics presented. Provides coverage of the basic biological properties of disease, along with applied knowledgeFeatures economic impacts, transmission, geographical distribution, epidemiology, detection, and control within each chapterOrganizes viroid diseases by viroid taxonomy and viroid species INDICE: Part I Introduction 1.
