Plant Virology

Plant Virology is a field of Plant Pathology and Environmental sciences. Plant Pathology deals with Viruses & Virus like Pathogens and Diseases. In Plant Pathology major courses are Horticulture and Crop Science, Entomology or Microbiology.  Tobacco mosaic infection (TMV) is a positive-sense single stranded RNA virus that taints an extensive variety of plants, particularly tobacco and different individuals from the family Solanaceae. Most plant viruses are RNA although some 80+ Viruses or DNA Viruses. Basically Plant viruses Genomes are comprises in Coding Region and Non coding Region

Coding Region:

It expresses the proteins required to Viral Infection Cycle

Movement to the Plant

Interaction with host

Non-coding regions:  It controls the expression and replication of the genome.
