Summary: | This edited book elucidates the evolution of plant virus, genomic structure, diversity, plant-virus interaction, subcellular movement etc. The book reviews the biological machineries which allow the emergence of virus populations adapted by plant. The main objective of this book is the demonstration of a clear synergistic effect of plant viruses, an effect that was unexpectedly as important as applied alone. Ornamental plants are very popular and economically important worldwide. The international market of ornamentals is constantly expanding. Viruses and viroids can significantly reduce both decorative value and quality of propagated material of ornamentals. Due to the wide range of ornamental plant species and cultivars and their wide geographical distribution, the diversity of viruses that infect them is also high. The new emerging viruses are the causal agent for the economic loss of many important ornamental plants. Therefore, this book also adds value to current knowledge of virus stress response in ornamental plants and will provide the groundwork necessary for building future strategies for product enhancement. This book is of interest to teachers, researchers, capacity builders and policymakers. It can serve as additional reading material for undergraduate and graduate students of virology, agriculture and plant sciences. <p>This edited book elucidates the evolution of plant virus, genomic structure, diversity, plant-virus interaction, subcellular movement etc. The book reviews the biological machineries which allow the emergence of virus populations adapted by plant.

Author Notes: | After graduation with a BSc in agronomy in 1987 from Hebei Agricultural University in China, I was employed at the Cotton Institute, Hebei Academy of Agricultural and Forestry Sciences in China and worked on breeding new cotton cultivars resistant to pathogens. In 1997, I came to Poland as a visiting scientist financed by the Ministry of Education of China and I received MSc in horticulture in 1998 at Department of Plant Genetics, Breeding and Biotechnology, Faculty of Horticulture, Warsaw Agricultural University - SGGW. I received Habilitation in 2019 in agricultural sciences with subject on PVY interaction with potato and tobacco. I have worked on 2 international and 7 national projects, published 33 research articles, 5 book chapters, 20 conference papers/abstracts, and gave 42 oral presentations on national/international conferences, invited lectures and seminars. I was awarded on my PhD study and scientific achievements by SGGW-Poland in 2001, 2002 and 2007, Minister of Education of China in 2004, Polish Academy of Sciences in 2007, IHAR-PIB in 2016 and 2018. I have made scientific visits to SASA UK, ECU USA, and was the Polish representative of the PVYwide organization. |
