In this comprehensive reference, leading researchers examine the
biology, molecular biology, and diseases of the Bunyaviridae, and
provide up-to-date information on the genetic characterization and
variations of this virus group. Chapters deal with the molecular biology
of five genera: Bunyavirus, Hantavirus, Nairovirus, Phlebovirus, and
Tospovirus. Chapters examine Bunyaviridae assembly and intracelluar
protein transport as well as Bunyaviridae genetics. Contributors discuss
the Bunyaviridae diseases, including the hantavirus pulmonary syndrome.
