Springer - The Plant Viruses: Polyhedral Virions and Bipartite RNA

Expand your scientific library with this specialized volume from the Springer series, The Plant Viruses. This fifth volume focuses on viruses with bipartite genomes, providing a deep dive into polyhedral virions and specific RNA structures. It serves as a necessary addition for researchers studying viruses with isometric particles and single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes. This text completes the extensive coverage started in previous volumes. While Volumes 1 and 3 addressed tripartite and monopartite genomes, this edition focuses on the specific affinities and groupings of bipartite viruses. It explores the relationships within these groups, such as the connections found within the Bromoviridae family. This book is a technical resource for those working in pathology and plant virology, offering detailed insights into the genomic organization and structural characteristics of these specific viral entities.
