Access limited to subscribing institution.

This book contains 17 chapters covering topics on the interactions between the causal pathogens, other biotic components associated with crops and the physical (abiotic) environment. The positive and negative effects of these interactions, and plant virus transmission specifically from an epidemiological perspective, are discussed in the introductory chapters.
