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: An Emerging Virus Complex Threatening Vegetable and Fiber Crops

Enrique Moriones, +2 more
- 21 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: ToLCNDV genetic variability has been analyzed, providing new insights into the taxonomy, host adaptation, and evolution of this virus.

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.

Plant Virus Metagenomics: Biodiversity and Ecology

Marilyn J. Roossinck
- 12 Nov 2012 - 
TL;DR: The finding of so many new plant viruses that do not cause any obvious symptoms in wild plant hosts certainly changes the authors' perception of viruses and how they interact with their hosts.

Molecular Ecology and Emergence of Tropical Plant Viruses

Denis Fargette, +5 more
- 08 Aug 2006 - 
TL;DR: Current attempts to assess the risks of emergence of virulent virus strains are described and a current challenge is now to complement the analysis of the causes by an assessment of the risk of emergence.

Recombination in eukaryotic single stranded DNA viruses.

Darren P. Martin, +5 more
- 13 Sep 2011 - 
TL;DR: The ecological, biochemical and selective factors underlying patterns of genetic exchange detectable amongst the ssDNA viruses are discussed and how these should all be considered when assessing the adaptive value of recombination during ssDNA virus evolution is discussed.

The spread of Tomato yellow leaf curl virus from the Middle East to the world

Pierre Lefeuvre, +9 more
- 01 Jan 2010 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied Bayesian phylogeographic inference and recombination analyses to available tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) sequences and reconstructed a plausible history of TYLCV's diversification and movements throughout the world.

Distribution and genetic diversity of tomato-infecting begomoviruses in Brazil.

Simone G. Ribeiro, +9 more
- 01 Feb 2003 - 
TL;DR: The results indicate the existence of a high degree of pre-existing genetic diversity among tomato-infecting begomoviruses in Brazil and suggest that these viruses have emerged after being transferred from natural hosts to tomatoes, due to the introduction into Brazil of a novel polyfagous biotype of the whitefly vector.
