Molecular Approaches to an Understanding of the Transmission of Plant Viruses by Nematodes

  • Chapter
Advances in Molecular Plant Nematology

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 268))

Abstract

In common with all parasites, viruses must have a means of moving from one host to another in order to survive. For the majority of plant viruses, this phase involves the assistance, either actively or passively, of a motile vector. For most viruses, this vector is an arthropod but a small number of viruses have other vectors, prominent among which are soil-inhabiting nematodes which feed on plant roots. However, although few viruses are involved, they can nevertheless cause some economically significant diseases.
