A small number of plant viruses are transmitted through the soil, either by fungal or nematode vectors, or without the aid of a vector. The limited spread but long persistence of these viruses pose particular problems for their control.
Keywords: nepoviruses; tobraviruses; tombusviridae; fungal vectors; nematode vectors
