Almost any change in the conditions under which plants are grown affects their susceptibility to infection by viruses, the way in which infected plants respond to infection, and the extent to which viruses accumulate in them. Although the effects of changing light intensity or day length, and supply of water or nutrients, can be considerable, they all still fall far short of those produced by changes of temperature. Not only does the temperature at which healthy plants are kept greatly affect the ease with which they contract infection, but the temperature at which infected plants are kept can determine whether or not a virus multiplies and, if it does, whether the symptoms produced are of one kind or another.
