Plant viruses are small infectious agents that can cause disease in plants. They can range in size from 20 to 300 nanometers and are made up of either RNA or DNA. Plant viruses are spread mainly by insects and other vectors, such as nematodes, fungi, and bacteria. They can also be spread through plant-to-plant contact and through infected seed. Symptoms of infection can range from subtle changes in leaf color to stunting and wilting of the plant. In some cases, the virus can cause serious damage to the plant and can even lead to its death. In order to control plant viruses, farm managers can use a variety of approaches, such as planting resistant varieties, using clean seed, controlling the vector population, and using a combination of chemical and biological control methods. Taking these steps can prevent the spread of plant viruses and help protect crop yields.
