Description
This volume spans the disciplines of entomology, plant pathology and virology by exploring the mechanisms by which vectors - carriers of disease agents - acquire and transmit pathogens such as viruses to their plant and animal hosts. It is part of a series that covers the spectrum of vectors from mosquitos and leafhoppers to nematodes, and pathogens from viruses to mycoplasmas to protozoa. Articles deal with the emerging science of vector ecology, and consider both biotic and abiotic environmental influences on disease transmission.
