Focusing on the impact of Begomoviruses on crops, particularly tomatoes, this monographic document explores the ecological, social, and cultural challenges posed by these pathogens. It details the molecular and genetic techniques developed to understand plant-virus interactions, aiming to elucidate the physiological responses involved. The text provides essential information on Begomoviruses, their infection mechanisms, and current "omics" tools for managing these viral diseases, making it a valuable resource for understanding and controlling plant viral infections.

The book delves into the evolution of micro-organisms like bacteria and fungi in response to environmental pressures, highlighting their changing biology and nutrient selection. It emphasizes the need for updated methodologies in microbiological studies, particularly regarding culture media used for analyzing infectious agents. The document outlines various types of culture media, including new substrates that enhance the growth of specific microorganisms. This resource aims to support laboratory techniques and improve the understanding of microbial development.
