Features: Virology is a specialized discipline that spans biology, medicine, agriculture, and environmental science. With the advancement of molecular biology research, virology has increasingly applied molecular biology techniques to study and understand the "simplest model of life" at the molecular level. The research achievements in molecular virology have also enriched and promoted the content and progress of molecular biology. This book covers various fields such as molecular biology, molecular genetics, biotechnology, agriculture, and medicine, reflecting the latest research progress in molecular virology while also focusing on its practical applications in healthcare and agriculture. For example, it includes research on the basic, diagnostic, prevention, and treatment aspects of the SARS coronavirus and avian influenza virus, which have severely threatened public health security in China in recent years. It also addresses major diseases in healthcare and agriculture in China, such as human hepatitis B, hepatitis C, AIDS, mad cow disease, and wheat virus disease. The main content of this book is derived from the author's own research achievements as well as the latest research progress in academia both domestically and internationally. This book is suitable for scientific researchers engaged in life science studies, teachers and undergraduate and graduate students in relevant fields, as well as doctors and agricultural technicians involved in medicine and agriculture for reference.
