Reviews

@qu:"This is an excellent textbook for a graduate level course in plant virology... For virologists, plant pathologists, and other biologists whose teaching or research activities have some relation to the plant viruses, this should be a most useful reference work." @source:--BIOSCIENCE @qu:"The text is highly readable and the form of the volume is outstanding. This book gives up-to-date information of nearly all aspects of plant virology and can be highly recommended for students and researchers." @source:--ACTA PHYTOPATHOLOGICA @qu:"The author is experienced in many of the areas which he covers, and writes clearly and critically about them all." @source:--AMERICAN SCIENTIST @qu:"Highly recommended." @source:--CHOICE
