Encapsidated Circular Viroid-like Satellite RNAs (Virusoids) of Plants
The first encapsidated circular, viroid-like satellite RNA of a plant virus was described by Randles et al. (1981). In less than a year, three others were identified (Francki 1987) but, strangely, it was not until 17 years later that a fifth one was repor

Preface
The nine chapters presented in this book provide contemporary reviews of research on defective RNAs, satellite RNA viruses, and dependent RNA viruses that require the presence of a helper virus in order to establish productive infections. Since their initial identification nearly four decades ago, fundamental analyses of pathogenic and interdependent interactions involving these agents have contributed en
