Journal ArticleDOI

Secoviridae: a proposed family of plant viruses within the order Picornavirales that combines the families Sequiviridae and Comoviridae, the unassigned genera Cheravirus and Sadwavirus, and the proposed genus Torradovirus.

TL;DR: This work proposes to create a new genus termed Torradovirus (type species, Tomato torrado virus) and to assign this genus to the proposed family Secoviridae, a new family of plant viruses that infect plants and use specialized proteins or protein domains to move through their host.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular Remodeling During Plant Virus Infection

TL;DR: This review focuses on the extensive membrane and organelle rearrangements that have been observed in plant cells infected with RNA viruses and how these alterations may be involved in other processes such as viral RNA translation and cell-to-cell virus transport.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant Translation Factors and Virus Resistance

TL;DR: Understanding the mechanisms that control the development of natural viral resistance and the emergence of virulent isolates in response to these plant defense responses will provide the basis for the selection of new sources of resistance and for the intelligent design of engineered resistance that is broad-spectrum and durable.
