| Summary: | This series spans the disciplines of entomology, plant pathology, and virology by exploring the mechanisms by which vectors - the carriers of disease agents - acquire and transmit pathogens such as viruses to their plant and animal hosts. The series covers the spectrum of vectors from mosquitos and leafhoppers to nematodes, and pathogens from viruses to mycoplasmas to protozoa. Articles deal with the emerging sciences of vector ecology, and consider both biotic and abiotic environmental influences on disease transmission. As a forum to present current thinking in this field, the series is an important resource for researchers and students involved in understanding and overcoming the many vector-borne diseases of plants, animals, and humans. |
