Begomoviruses and associated DNA satellites are involved in pathosystems that include many cultivated and wild dicot plants and the whitefly vector Bemisia tabaci. A survey of leguminous plants, both crops and wild species, was conducted in Venezuela, an

Geminivirus Rep Protein Interferes with the Plant DNA Methylation Machinery and Modifies the Host Epigenome [PDF]
The apparent simplicity of viruses hides the complexity of their interactions with their hosts. Viruses are masters at circumventing host defenses and manipulating the cellular environment for their own benefit.

Attempts to identify Cassava Brown Streak Virus in western Democratic Republic of Congo [PDF]
Open Access ArticleRoot necrosis similar to those of the cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) were observed on cassava in western provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR.Congo) in the early 2000’s. However molecular laboratory diagnosis were not

The early defence response in cassava plants is associated with EACMV‐Ug resistance, while the susceptible varieties' response is delayed and expresses fewer unique differentially expressed genes. ABSTRACT Cassava mosaic begomoviruses (CMBs) cause the economically important cassava mosaic disease (CMD) in cassava.

Summary Exploring the new elements to re‐design the expression cassette is crucial in synthetic biology. Viruses are one of the most important sources for exploring gene expression elements. In this study, we found that the DNA sequence of the SBG51 deltasatellite from the Sweet potato leaf curl virus (SPLCV) greatly enhanced the gene expression when ...

The viral etiology of tomato yellow leaf curl disease - a review
Tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD) is one of the most devastating plant diseases in the world. As a result of its continuing rapid spread, it now afflicts more than 30 tomato growing countries in the Mediterranean basin, southern Asia, Africa, and ...

Endogenous caulimovirid sequences are widespread in plant genomes [PDF]
Endogenous sequences from members of the Caulimoviridae and Geminiviridae families have been identified in the genome of several plant species. They are thought to result from illegitimate recombination events and are generally replication-defective ...

ABSTRACT The partial nucleotide sequence of the coat protein (CP) gene of Ethiopian isolates of chickpea chlorotic stunt virus (CpCSV, genus Polerovirus), beet western yellows virus (BWYV, genus Polerovirus), and soybean dwarf virus (SbDV, genus Luteovirus) was determined from lentil and chickpea plants showing yellowing, stunting, and reddening ...

Molecular epidemiology, genetic diversity and dissemination routes of CMGs in sub-Saharan Africa and the south-west Indian Ocean (SWIO) islands [PDF]
Cassava cultivation is associated with a wide range of diseases that seriously undermine the food and economic security in African countries. The most notable of these is CMD, caused by a complex of cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs; Geminiviridae ...
