Geminiviruses are DNA viruses which infect plants. They have a small genome and encode only a few proteins. Therefore, their DNA replication cycle relies largely on the use of cellular DNA replication proteins.

Plant Defense and Viral Counter-Defense during Plant–Geminivirus Interactions
Geminiviruses are the largest family of plant viruses that cause severe diseases and devastating yield losses of economically important crops worldwide. In response to geminivirus infection, plants have evolved ingenious defense mechanisms to diminish or

Silencing suppression by geminivirus proteins
RNA silencing is an RNA-directed gene regulatory system that is present in a wide range of eukaryotes, and which functions as an antiviral defense in plants.

Efficient production of functional cholera toxin B subunit using geminiviral replicons in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]
The cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) has the potential to be a carrier molecule and an effective adjuvant for mucosal vaccines because of its ability to enhance immune responses to antigens. CTB proteins have been expressed in plant-based expression systems.

Geminivirus strain demarcation and nomenclature
Geminivirus taxonomy and nomenclature is growing in complexity with the number of genomic sequences deposited in sequence databases. Taxonomic and nomenclatural updates are published at regular intervals (Fauquet et al. in Arch Virol 145:1743–1761, 2000,

A TIR-NLR gene from Arabidopsis Pla-1 confers resistance to geminivirus infection. [PDF]
SUMMARY Geminiviruses are single‐stranded DNA viruses that infect many plant species and cause serious losses in agronomically important crops. An earlier study showed that the Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Pla‐1 is resistant to infection by diverse geminivirus species and mapped the major resistance locus Geminivirus Resistance of Pla‐1 1 (GRP1) to ...
