Interpretive Summary: This special issue of Virus Research is focused on plant virus epidemiology and includes papers originating from presentations made at the 14th International Plant Virus Epidemiology Symposium held in Seoul, South Korea from May 13–17, 2019. The symposium was organized jointly by the International Committee on Plant Virus Epidemiology (ICPVE) of the International Society of Plant Pathology (ISPP) and hosted by the Rural Development Administration of Korea and Korean Society for Plant Pathology. The symposium was global in scope; with over 123 participants from 33 countries, and included 12 keynote speeches, 53 oral and 60 poster presentations, offering a rich diversity of perspectives. Papers contributed to this Special Issue include research from six continents and cover a range of topics influencing plant virus epidemiology, including virus diversity and evolution, transmission and vector dynamics, virus ecology and host-vector interactions, and the latest in diagnostics, surveillance, and management of emerging viral pathogens.
