Weather Conditions and the Risk of Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) in Tomato Producing Areas in Southern Ghana. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Tomato farmers in southern Ghana incur losses due to the infection of crops by the tomato spotted wilt virus (Orthotospovirus tomatomaculae). The occurrence of the virus varies among individual tomato crops, influenced by the vector population and changing weather patterns. This study investigates the effect of early spring weather conditions (

Identification of a gene conferring broad-spectrum orthotospovirus resistance in Solanaceae. [PDF]
Linkage drag can hinder the integration of resistance genes from wild crop relatives into breeding programs. We used a chromosome-scale Nicotiana alata genome assembly and a segregating population exceeding 160,000 plants to dissect the complex genetic architecture and overcome the tight linkage between resistance ...

Genus Orthotospovirus in Costa Rica: A Central American case
The Orthotospovirus genus encompasses a range of economically significant and emerging plant viruses that affect a variety of crops globally. While the prevalence and characteristics of these phytopathogenic viruses are extensively documented in North and South America, their presence in Central America remains comparatively underexplored.

Thrips as the Transmission Bottleneck for Mixed Infection of Two Orthotospoviruses
Mixed infections provide opportunities for viruses to increase genetic diversity by facilitating genomic reassortment or recombination, and they may lead to the emergence of new virus species.
