Eukaryotic Circular Rep-Encoding Single-Stranded DNA (CRESS DNA) Viruses: Ubiquitous Viruses With Small Genomes and a Diverse Host Range

Lele Zhao, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2019 - 
TL;DR: The explosion of sequence diversity and expansion of eukaryotic CRESS DNA taxonomic groups over the last decade is surveyed, similarities between the well-studied geminiviruses and circoviruses with newly identified groups known only through their genome sequences are highlighted, and the ecology and evolution of eUKaryoticCRESS DNA viruses are discussed.

Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus: a widespread bipartite begomovirus in the territory of monopartite begomoviruses.

Syed Shan-e-Ali Zaidi, +4 more
- 01 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: An understanding of the capacity of ToLCNDV to infect a variety of hosts and spread across a broad and ecologically variable geographical range could illuminate the potential economic threats associated with similar begomoviral invasions.

Complexity of begomovirus and betasatellite populations associated with chilli leaf curl disease in India.

R. Vinoth Kumar, +9 more
- 01 Oct 2015 - 
TL;DR: Analysis of samples collected in the survey indicates that ChiLCD-infected plants are associated with a complex of begomoviruses (including one previously unreported species) with a diverse group of betasatellites found in crops and weeds, and demonstrates the crucial role of betAsatellites in severe disease development in Capsicum spp.

Possible emergence of new geminiviruses by frequent recombination.

Malla Padidam, +2 more
- 20 Dec 1999 - 
TL;DR: Geminiviruses are a group of plant viruses characterized by a genome of circular single-stranded DNA encapsidated in twinned quasi-isometric particles and recombination is very frequent and occurs between species and within and across genera.

Rates of evolutionary change in viruses: patterns and determinants.

Siobain Duffy, +3 more
- 04 Mar 2008 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that the high rate of nucleotide substitution in RNA viruses is matched by some DNA viruses, suggesting that evolutionary rates in viruses are explained by diverse aspects of viral biology, such as genomic architecture and replication speed, and not simply by polymerase fidelity.

RNA-based antiviral immunity

Shou-Wei Ding
- 01 Sep 2010 - 
TL;DR: Recent studies on the features of viral siRNAs and other virus-derived small RNAs from virus-infected fungi, plants, insects, nematodes and vertebrates are reviewed and the innate and adaptive properties of RNA-based antiviral immunity are discussed.

Emerging Virus Diseases Transmitted by Whiteflies

Jesús Navas-Castillo, +2 more
- 12 Aug 2011 - 
TL;DR: Factors driving the emergence and establishment of whitefly-transmitted diseases include genetic changes in the virus through mutation and recombination, changes inThe vector populations coupled with polyphagy of the main vector, Bemisia tabaci, and long distance traffic of plant material or vector insects due to trade of vegetables and ornamental plants.

Colin R. Parrish, +8 more
- 01 Sep 2008 - 
TL;DR: What is known about host switching leading to viral emergence from known examples is reviewed, considering the evolutionary mechanisms, virus-host interactions, host range barriers to infection, and processes that allow efficient host-to-host transmission in the new host population.
