Geminivirus Database (GVDB): First Database of Family Geminiviridae and its genera Begomovirus
Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, 2012 Geminivirus Database (GVDB) is an online interactive database of Geminiviridae family. GVDB comprises of partial and complete nucleotide sequences along with duly annotated expressed genes of isolated Begomovirus species. The in silico homology modeling, docking and recombination results obtained for different begomoviral sequences are also mentioned ...

Meta‐analysis reveals strong evidence for adaptive host and vector manipulation by plant viruses
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant viruses often enhance their own transmission by modifying host phenotypes and vector behaviour, leading to the hypothesis that such effects are manipulations due to virus adaptations.

REPercussions: how geminiviruses recruit host factors for replication
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Circular single-stranded DNA viruses of the family Geminiviridae encode replication-associated protein (Rep), which is a multifunctional protein involved in virus DNA replication, transcription of virus genes, and suppression of host defense responses ...

Distribution and Rate of Movement of the Curtovirus Beet mild curly top virus (Family Geminiviridae) in the Beet Leafhopper [PDF]
Phytopathology®, 2003 A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based method for the detection of the curtovirus Beet mild curly top virus (BMCTV, previously named the Worland strain of Beet curly top virus) was developed and used to investigate the BMCTV-beet leafhopper interaction. Using PCR and a BMCTV-specific primer pair, an ≈1.1-kb BMCTV DNA fragment was amplified from adult

Molecular characterization of Euphorbia caput-medusae stunt virus: Evidence for the existence of a new genus within the family Geminiviridae [PDF]
, 2013 Studies focusing on phytoviruses isolated from the wild are rare. Nevertheless, even if those studies remain scarce, it is increasingly accepted that viruses coming from wild plants might play a role on disease emergence and in the functioning of ...
