Course content
Viral plant diseases are widespread and cause great economic damage to the national economy. Introduction of intensive technologies for growing plants, new varieties and hybrids, active exchange and movement of seed and planting material contribute to the spread of viral infections and induce changes in the species composition of phytoviruses. Phytovirology is the science that studies viruses that infect plants, symptoms in infected objects, methods of diagnosing and identifying phytoviruses, ways of transmitting plant viruses, changes in plant metabolism, types of resistance and their mechanisms, and develops ways to prevent and control viral diseases.
