OverviewThis edition pays particular attention to viruses in food webs, especially in aquatic environments, and to current concepts of virus classification. The section on virus evolution has been expanded and new examples provided to show how viruses evolve and new pathotypes emerge. Then text also addresses the development of genetically engineered viruses (and plants or animals containing virus-derived sequences) in the context of environmental issues deriving from their field release. This work is intended to be of interest to senior undergraduates, lecturers and researchers in microbiology, agricultural science, ecology, molecular biology, and virology.
