Fields Virology
DNA viruses
Description:... DNA Viruses is the second volume of the seventh edition of Fields Virology. The first volume, Emerging Viruses, was published last year. The next two volumes, RNA Viruses and Fundamental Virology, will be published annually in subsequent years. There have been continued rapid advances in virology since the sixth edition that was published in 2013, and all of the chapters in the DNA Viruses volume are either completely new or have been significantly updated to reflect these advances. In this seventh edition, we have chosen to highlight important references published since the last edition while maintaining older classics. This volume covers all of the DNA viruses of medical importance, including viruses that infect humans and animals. DNA viruses of plants, insects, and bacteria will be included in the fourth volume of the seventh edition, Fundamental Virology.
