✦ Synopsis

Leading researchers present contemporary treatment of in situ hybridization applied to current issues in animal virus pathogenesis. The most recent methods are given for locating viral genes in whole animal section and for defining the number and type of cells surrounded by viruses. The genetic programs played out in these cells and the newer methods of hybridization at the electron microscopic level provide valuable insight into the complexities of virus-host interaction.
