viruses of plants

viruses of plants descriptions and lists from the VIDE database CAB international text UK CAB international 1996 eng 1484 Hlm : ill ; 24,2 cm The VIDE (Virus Identification Data Exchange) project started in the early 1980s and, with support from the Rural Credit Development Fund of the Reserve Bank of Australia, produced and published an experimental database of viruses of legumes in 1983. Legumes were chosen, not just because of their economic importance, and that they are hosts to a large and representative collection of viruses, but also because the International Working Group on Legume Viruses comprised a group of experts willing to collate the information. The database was extended, with further support from the Fund, to produce the book 'Viruses of Plants in Australia' in 1988. Since 1983 the project has also been generously supported by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, and this work resulted in the publication of 'Viruses of Tropical Plants' in 1990 and, now, this book. The VIDE project has relied on the help and encouragement of a very large number of colleagues around the world. Those who collated most of the data of each virus are specifically named in the description of that virus. Very large contributions were made by past members of the editorial team; K.F. Boswell, C. Büchen-Osmond and G.D. McLean. T.A. Paine of the CSIRO Division of Entomology provided invaluable help with the theory and practical use of the DELTA system. J.F. Antoniw of Rothamsted Experimental Station, U.K. very kindly provided the sequence database accession codes. We are pleased to receive comments on all aspects of the VIDE project, to discuss additional applications of the database, to learn of errors in the data and to have offers of assistance in revising or adding new information.
