Abstract

In the last decades, viral diseases cause to high losses in worldwide crop production. Since, agents with direct effects on virus particles are not available, management approaches of viral diseases includes control of vectors and/or protection of plants according to transformation. According to this, high plant extracts considered as a source antiviral agents. The consequences of residual toxicity and non-biodegradation of synthetic chemicals and pollution of the environment has led to investigations into new non-toxic and biological treatments to control plant viral diseases. The attention of researchers today is focused on the use of plant extracts.In this study, antiviral effect of plant extracts against plant viruses was examined. Considering the results of the conducted research, it can be expected that new plant species will be identified as antiviral sources. Finally, by identifying effective compounds in these species, we can hope for access to biological antiviral compounds with fewer side effects.
