Without sensationalizing or providing the technical details that would result in a terrorist's handbook, the volume reflects the concerns expressed by experts from 12 states (including many from Slavic regions adjoining or aspiring to membership of the European Union). A range of vulnerabilities are highlighted that are usually neglected. Assessments that focus on the horrifying potential of bioterrorism directly targeting people are commonplace. This book is exceptional because indirect impacts on human health and welfare through challenge to the security of food supplies are the focus. These urgently need to be recognised and made subjects of planned investment to counter the threat. Examples of past state-sponsored and independent actions are discussed. The evolution of biological (chemical defoliant) systems for controlling plant growth with unambiguously humanitarian aims is shown to have resulted in a range of counter terrorist uses. These experiences provide a background for discussion that draws upon experience in tropical and temperate regions and spans the potential for harm offered by naturally occurring plant pathogenic viruses targeting food plants or forestry. Management options are addressed and the need for protection is set against the risk of discouraging biotechnological advance. TOC:Preface.A short History of Warfare Emphasising the biological Aspects-Crop Viruses and Virus Diseases: A Global Perspective.-Plant Viruses in European Agriculture: Current Problems and Future Aspects.-Significant Ways to spread Plant Virus Diseases in agricultural Ecosystems: Is Agroterrorism possible?.- Soil-borne Viruses of Crop Plants - Potential Agents for bioterrorist Attacks?.- Genomic Approaches in Virus Diagnostics: A personal Assessment of Realities when faced with Viruses in a Plant Biosecurity Context.- Molecular Methods for Detection and Quantitation of Viruses in Aphids.-The Use of monoclonal Antibodies in Plant Protection and for Studying Virus-induced pathogenic Processes.- Identification of Plant Host Factors interacting with Viruses: Novel Targets for Virus Control.- Current View on Host Components involved in Plant Virus intercellular Trafficking.- Abiotic environmental Factors: Effects on Epidemiology of Plant Virus Infections.-Somaclonal Variation as a Source of Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus-Resistance in Plants.- List of contributors.- Index. eBook Springer PDF, Springer, 08.05.2007, Springer, 2007<

Biosecurity roughly means â??safe lifeâ? and involves a variety of measures designed to prevent disease â?? causing agents from entering a region and there being spread. Food supplies are easy to disrupt and the provision of biosecurity at la- land borders is especially challenging if trade is to be maintained and when very few travellers are subjected to thorough inspection. WithinthecontextoftheNATOsponsoredworkshopthatwasheldinKiev, Ukraine during May 4â??7, 2005, the pathogens were viruses that infect plants and the region encompassed developing states on the verge of acceding into the European Union. In publishing the papers presented at the workshop, we take this opportunity to thank the sponsors including particularly the NATO Science committee and also the contributors for making the discussions - tertaining and bene?cial. Under United Nations FAO auspices, the International Plant Protection Convention aimed to secure common and effective activities against pests and pathogens. Now, most countries party to that convention have laws and regulations in place to sustain agricultural production under natural threat. National plant protection services exist to inspect growing crops and imp- tations and to determine when and how introduced pathogens might be era- cated. The member states of the European Union, through their national [and also the regional plant protection service (The European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation)], advise national governments and develops speci?c protocols (identi?cation, containment and eradication) that aim at managing pests and pathogens in ways that have minimal impact on trade.
