Hardcover. Plant virus infections are estimated to cost billions of dollars in economic losses. Despite intensive efforts to manage and prevent plant viruses and their potential vectors in crop production processes, the threat posed by newly emerging or re-emerging viruses is becoming more common and poses potential threats even in previously uninfected areas. In this new volume, the editors review the progress made and the challenges ahead to address the hidden world of plant viruses, their impact on agriculture and food security, and the need for new detection systems and management strategies. Presents recent approaches for plant virus detection and explores new trends in viral disease control. Advances in detection strategies and diagnostics of plant viruses and new and recent trends in diagnostic methods, such as next-generation CRISPR-based diagnostic methods, among other current and prospective strategies. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
