It deals with epidemiological aspects of the disease as well as integrated pest management in the field. Coverage discusses the efforts aimed at breeding tomato plants resistant to the virus by classical breeding, by marker-assisted breeding and by genetic engineering. The book summarizes the techniques used for diagnosis, eradication and certification. It also emphasizes the problems inherent to the control of the virus insect vector, the use of pesticides and the resistance acquired by the insects, the appearance of new whitefly biotypes with previously unknown characteristics, and the complicated relationships between virus, vector and plant host.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Henryk Czosnek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1402047681\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781402047688\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.37h x 6.39w x 0.92d","brand":"Henryk Czosnek","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47520380813567,"sku":"9781402047688","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ed06d7b5-1c45-4b75-9817-147b883aa7e9.jpg?v=1762885207","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tomato-yellow-leaf-curl-virus-henryk-czosnek-9781402047688","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
