Virus versus host plant microRNAs: who determines the outcome of the interaction?

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Considering the importance of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the regulation of essential processes in plant pathogen interactions, it is not surprising that, while plant miRNA sequences counteract viral attack via antiviral RNA silencing, viruses in turn have ...

African Cassava Mosaic Virus (ACMV): Stability of Purified Virus and Improved Conditions for its Detection in Cassava Leaves by ELISA

open access: yesJournal of Phytopathology, 1989
AbstractAfrican Cassava Mosaic Virus (ACMV) was purified by a method which allowed the separation of monomer from dimcr virus particles.Optimal conditions for storing purified virus to be used for immunization were determined by ELISA and inoculation on Nicotiana benthamiana.

The reverse genetic as a potential of virus‐induced gene silencing in tomato biology

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 2498-2514, November 2024.
Abstract In the realm of plant genomics, virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) technology emerges as a potent tool, employing a reverse genetic strategy to elucidate plant gene functions. Recognized for its simplicity, cost‐effectiveness, and broad applicability, VIGS facilitates the exploration of novel genes in vegetable crops and unveils mechanisms ...

Linking CRISPR-Cas9 interference in cassava to the evolution of editing-resistant geminiviruses

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2019
Background Geminiviruses cause damaging diseases in several important crop species. However, limited progress has been made in developing crop varieties resistant to these highly diverse DNA viruses.

Dose-dependent RNAi-mediated geminivirus resistance in the tropical root crop cassava [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cassava mosaic disease is a major constraint for cassava production in Africa, resulting in significant economic losses. We have engineered transgenic cassava with resistance to African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV), by expressing ACMV AC1-homologous ...

Effects of cassava genotype, climate and the Bemisia tabaci vector population on the development of African cassava mosaic geminivirus (ACMV)

open access: yesActa Agronomica Hungarica, 2003
A survey was carried out in the 1996/97 and 1997/98 growing seasons on a field planted in three replicates with five clones of cassava at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture, Ibadan, located in a transition forest, to determine the effects of cassava genotype and climate on the development of African cassava mosaic geminivirus (ACMV ...

Reduction of cassava mosaic geminiviruses from infected stem cuttings using salicylic acid, hydrogen peroxide and hot water treatment

open access: yesJournal of Phytopathology, Volume 172, Issue 3, May/June 2024.
Abstract Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) causes significant losses in cassava production in Africa. The disease is caused by several cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs) and spread through the use of infected plant materials. The infected plants remain infected throughout their vegetative lifecycle as the disease cannot be controlled by standard plant ...

Cassava brown streak: A deadly virus on the move

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 221-241, February 2024.
A farmer reveals extensive storage root rot caused by cassava brown streak disease [Photo credit James Legg]. Abstract The beginning of the 21st century witnessed a vast and devastating upsurge in the incidence and spread of cassava brown streak ipomovirus disease (CBSD) in eastern countries of sub‐Saharan Africa that decimated crops and jeopardized ...

Properties of African Cassava Mosaic Virus Capsid Protein Expressed in Fission Yeast

open access: yesViruses, 2016
The capsid proteins (CPs) of geminiviruses combine multiple functions for packaging the single-stranded viral genome, insect transmission and shuttling between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) CP was expressed in fission

Molecular detection of two cassava Begomoviruses in some parts of Southern Nigeria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by an array of is the most economically important viral disease of cassava in sub-Saharan Africa. The most frequently reported in West Africa are African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) and East African cassava mosaic ...
