Geminiviral protein Rep interferes in PCNA sumoylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rep is a multifunctional protein essential for replication of geminivirus that interferes with the sumoylation of a key protein in the DNA replication, PCNA (Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen).

Cryptic species‐specific transmission of the invasive begomovirus tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.
ToLCNDV is typically transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci, but the efficiency of transmission varies among different cryptic species. The retention and circulation of viruses in insect vectors are crucial determinants of successful transmission to new plants.

Geminivirus-Mediated Genome Editing in Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) Using Sequence-Specific Nucleases

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Genome editing using sequence-specific nucleases (SSNs) is rapidly being developed for genetic engineering in crop species. The utilization of zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and clustered regularly

Geminivirus-Encoded Proteins: Not All Positional Homologs Are Made Equal

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Geminiviruses are insect-transmitted plant viruses with circular, single-stranded (ss)DNA genomes that cause devastating diseases in major crops worldwide.

The N-terminus of the Begomovirus Nuclear Shuttle Protein (BV1) Determines Virulence or Avirulence in Phaseolus vulgaris

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2007
The BV1 gene of the bipartite Begomovirus genome encodes a nuclear shuttle protein (NSP) that is also an avirulence determinant in common bean. The function of the NSP of two common bean-infecting bipartite begomoviruses, Bean dwarf mosaic virus (BDMV ...

Progress and Impacts of “Omics” Technologies in Understanding the Drought Response in Cassava: Adoption for Food Security in Africa

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Cassava is a crucial staple crop in Africa, but its productivity is increasingly threatened by the worsening impacts of drought caused by climate change. To address this challenge, an integration of “omics” and genome editing technologies has emerged as indispensable tools for understanding the complex mechanisms that govern cassava's response

Algevir: An Expression System for Microalgae Based on Viral Vectors

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
The use of recombinant algae for the production of valuable compounds is opening promising biotechnological applications. However, the development of efficient expression approaches is still needed to expand the exploitation of microalgae in ...

Factors influencing Barley Stripe Mosaic Virus-mediated gene silencing in wheat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Virus induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a technology that has been used primarily to target the virus genome in infected plants. However, if the virus genome carries inserts derived from the host plant, the system could be employed to target the mRNAs ...

A Novel Divergent Geminivirus Identified in Asymptomatic New World Cactaceae Plants

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Cactaceae comprise a diverse and iconic group of flowering plants which are almost exclusively indigenous to the New World. The wide variety of growth forms found amongst the cacti have led to the trafficking of many species throughout the world as ...

Viruses mobilize plant immunity to deter nonvector insect herbivores. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A parasite-infected host may promote performance of associated insect vectors; but possible parasite effects on nonvector insects have been largely unexplored. Here, we show that Begomovirus, the largest genus of plant viruses and transmitted exclusively
