Tomato Apical Leaf Curl Virus: A Novel, Monopartite Geminivirus Detected in Tomatoes in Argentina.

Carlos Gaston Vaghi Medina, +5 more
- 12 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: Based on the data presented, ToALCV genome appears to have “modular organization” supported by its recombination origin, and can be considered a type member of a new putative genus of the Geminiviridae family.
Journal ArticleDOI

C4, the Pathogenic Determinant of Tomato Leaf Curl Guangdong Virus, May Suppress Post-transcriptional Gene Silencing by Interacting With BAM1 Protein.

Li Zhenggang, +8 more
- 05 May 2020 - 
TL;DR: C4 is a pathogenic determinant of ToLCGdV, and C4 may suppress post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) by interacting with BAM1 in the cell-to-cell spread of RNAi.
Journal ArticleDOI

The non-canonical tomato yellow leaf curl virus recombinant that displaced its parental viruses in southern Morocco exhibits a high selective advantage in experimental conditions

Zineb Belabess, +6 more
- 16 Dec 2016 - 
TL;DR: Comp compelling evidence is provided that this viral population shift was associated with selection of TYLCV-IS76 viruses in tomato plants and particularly in Ty-1-bearing cultivars and was not associated with a fitness cost in a susceptible, nearly isogenic, cultivar.

Identification and genomic characterization of a novel CRESS DNA virus from a calf with severe hemorrhagic enteritis in China

Zijing Guo, +4 more
- 15 Aug 2018 - 
TL;DR: The results indicate that Bo-Circo-like virus CH may represent a new virus in bovine, and is most closely related to Po-CIRco- like virus 21 detected in pig faeces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular genetic analysis and evolution of begomoviruses and betasatellites causing yellow mosaic disease of bhendi

R. Vinoth Kumar, +5 more
- 01 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: The present study underlines that the evolution of BYVMD-associated viral components is driven by selection acting on the genetic variation generated by recombination and mutation.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross-Species Virus Transmission and the Emergence of New Epidemic Diseases

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.
