以黄瓜花叶病毒(CMV)的生态学为例,说明病毒如何影响一种重要作物的可持续性。现在人们普遍认为,现代农业中使用的技术应确保生产系统以这样一种方式运行,即年复一年地保持农产品的质量,而不会造成环境退化。地中海盆地各国最近的经验表明,引进新的高产植物品种所带来的预期效益可能会很快被新病毒株的引入所侵蚀,因为新病毒株会极大地改变常驻病毒种群的结构。植物繁殖检疫和基因工程被认为是帮助实现可持续发展的有力工具。(C)2000 Elsevier Science B.V.保留所有权利。
An account is given of the ecology of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) as a pertinent example of how a virus can affect the sustainability of an important crop. It is now generally accepted that the technologies used in modern agriculture should ensure that production systems are operated in such a way that the quality of the produce is maintained year after year without causing degradation of the environment. Recent experiences in countries of the Mediterranean basin demonstrate that the benefits expected from the introduction of new and highly productive plant varieties may be quickly eroded by the concomitant introduction of new virus strains which can greatly change the structure of the resident virus population. Quarantine inspection of plant propagules and genetic engineering are suggested as powerful tools to help achieve sustainability. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
