Journal ArticleDOI
A new tobamovirus infecting tomato crops in Jordan
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that a new tobamovirus isolated from tomato plants grown in greenhouses in Jordan during the spring of 2015 is identified, for which the name “tomato brown rugose fruit virus” is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple approaches for the detection and characterization of viral and plasmid symbionts from a collection of marine fungi.
Luca Nerva,Marina Ciuffo,Marta Vallino,Paolo Margaria,Giovanna Cristina Varese,Giorgio Gnavi,Massimo Turina +6 more
TL;DR: The findings reveal a wealth of diversity among these symbionts and this complexity will require further studies to address their specific role in this ecological niche, and is the first report on the virome of fungi isolated from marine environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence that the nonstructural protein of Tomato spotted wilt virus is the avirulence determinant in the interaction with resistant pepper carrying the TSW gene.
TL;DR: Assessment of reassortants between wild-type (WT) and RB strains confirmed that the S RNA, which encodes both the nucleocapsid protein (N) and a nonstructural protein (NSs), carries the genetic determinant responsible for Tsw resistance breakdown.
Journal ArticleDOI
The NSs Protein of Tomato spotted wilt virus Is Required for Persistent Infection and Transmission by Frankliniella occidentalis
Paolo Margaria,Lara Bosco,Marta Vallino,Marina Ciuffo,Giulia Carla Mautino,Luciana Tavella,Massimo Turina +6 more
TL;DR: This work is the first to show a role for the NSs protein in virus accumulation in the insect vector in the Bunyaviridae family, and generates a collection of NSs-defective T SWV isolates and shows that TSWV coding for truncated NSsprotein could not be transmitted by Frankliniella occidentalis.
Book ChapterDOI
Tospoviruses in the Mediterranean area.
TL;DR: Control measures in vegetable crops specific to Mediterranean conditions were examined in the context of their epidemiological features and tospovirus species which could pose a future potential risk for vegetable crops in the Mediterranean were discussed.
