Journal ArticleDOI
The sweetpotato or silverleaf whiteflies: biotypes of Bemisia tabaci or a species complex?
Journal ArticleDOI
Geminivirus strain demarcation and nomenclature
Claude M. Fauquet,Rob W. Briddon,Judith K. Brown,Enrique Moriones,John Stanley,M. Zerbini,Xueping Zhou +6 more
TL;DR: The status of geminivirus species and strain demarcation is reviewed as well as providing updated isolate descriptors for a total of 672 begomovirus isolates, and several others previously classified as “strains” have been upgraded to “species”.
Journal ArticleDOI
A phylogeographical analysis of the bemisia tabaci species complex based on mitochondrial DNA markers
TL;DR: The 16S and COI sequence data indicate that the B‐biotype originated in the Old World and is most closely related to B‐like variants from Israel and Yemen, with the next closest relative being a biotype from Sudan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revision of Begomovirus taxonomy based on pairwise sequence comparisons
Judith K. Brown,F. Murilo Zerbini,Jesús Navas-Castillo,Enrique Moriones,Roberto Ramos-Sobrinho,José Cleydson F. Silva,Elvira Fiallo-Olivé,Rob W. Briddon,Cecilia Hernández-Zepeda,Ali M. Idris,V. G. Malathi,Darren P. Martin,Rafael F. Rivera-Bustamante,Shigenori Ueda,Arvind Varsani +14 more
TL;DR: Revised guidelines for the classification and nomenclature of begomoviruses are proposed and genome-wide pairwise identities of 91 % and 94 % are proposed as the demarcation threshold for begomviruses belonging to different species and strains, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geminivirus transmission and biological characterisation of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) biotypes from different geographic regions.
TL;DR: The recently identified “B” biotype, characterised by a diagnostic esterase banding pattern and by its ability to induce phytotoxic responses in squash, honeysuckle and nightshade was readily distinguished from non-’B’ biotype populations.
