Abstract
AbstractPlant viruses pose a significant threat to global agriculture, resulting in economic losses and threatening food security. High-throughput sequencing and molecular techniques are advancing our understanding of these viruses, allowing for their detection, characterization, and control. The 55th meeting of the DPG Working Group “Viruskrankheiten der Pflanzen” showcased these advancements, encouraging international collaboration and idea exchange to tackle plant virus challenges. The perspectives paper we present summarizes this conference’s findings, highlighting the potential of these technologies in revolutionizing plant virus research.
