This practical guide covers the commonly used detection methods for seed-transmitted viruses and viroids that affect both tropical and temperate crops.

Combining helpful practical notes with more detailed explanations of the principles behind the techniques, the book describes the general characteristics of seed-transmitted viral diseases and discusses outlines for the organization and interpretation of seed health assays.
