Abstract
Immutiochernical tcchniques provide extremely specific and sensitive mcthods for studying the taxonomic, functional and structirrnl relationships of' antigens derived from plant-piithogcnic niicroorganisms or viruses. Antibodics specific for the topographical fcatures of r~iany typcs of rnolcculcs, including proteins, carbohydrates, polysaccharidcs, toxins, enzymes, and nuclcic acids, can be produced in imniunized anirnals. Plant virologists for decades havc used serological tcchniques for thc rapid identification and taxonomic classil'ication of viruses and, tnost iniportantly, iis cxtrerncly sensitive rnethods for diagnosing virus infection (16, 43, 139). Similar applications liavc been made with bacterial and to a lesser extcnt with f~~ngpaalt hogcns. I-Iowever, a dctailed serological analysis of these chemically and stnlcturally complcx antigens is difficult to achieve with conventional (polyclonal) antisera..
