William O. Dawson 226 Coat Protein Mediated Resistance. The 54 kDa Protein Encoded by Tobacco Mosaic Virus and Replicase-Mediated Resistance. This book is not a review of the status of virology or TMV studies, but rather a celebration of the original contributions and an overview of their impact then and now. The most recent paper is 1990, and there is world-wide coverage. The reprints are good quality, with most photos, graphs and other figures appearing quite clear, although obviously older papers cannot have the best quality.
Papers are in their original language.
The most recent papers have commentary written by the scientist who wrote the paper. Commentaries for older papers were written by scientists familiar with the paper. The commentaries also try to describe the experimental work that came out before and after the paper. One of the longer commentaries is about the study of TMW in Tubingen, Germany, from 1945-65. There is also biographical information about the author of each commentary.
