MicroRNA-mediated Resistance to Plant Viruses [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 20-24 nucleotide small RNAs which are processed from nuclear-encoded transcripts. miRNAs control the expression of target transcripts by cleaving or translational inhibition of the target RNAs.

Translation of Plant RNA Viruses
Plant RNA viruses encode essential viral proteins that depend on the host translation machinery for their expression. However, genomic RNAs of most plant RNA viruses lack the classical characteristics of eukaryotic cellular mRNAs, such as mono-cistron, 5′

Can Plant Viruses Cross the Kingdom Border and Be Pathogenic to Humans?
Phytoviruses are highly prevalent in plants worldwide, including vegetables and fruits. Humans, and more generally animals, are exposed daily to these viruses, among which several are extremely stable.

Exploring the diversity of plant DNA viruses and their satellites using vector-enabled metagenomics on whiteflies. [PDF]
Current knowledge of plant virus diversity is biased towards agents of visible and economically important diseases. Less is known about viruses that have not caused major diseases in crops, or viruses from native vegetation, which are a reservoir of ...

The curious case of genome packaging and assembly in RNA viruses infecting plants
Genome packaging is the crucial step for maturation of plant viruses containing an RNA genome. Viruses exhibit a remarkable degree of packaging specificity, despite the probability of co-packaging cellular RNAs.

First field records of the sexuales (males and oviparae) of Toxoptera aurantii (Hemiptera : Aphididae) [PDF]
Toxoptera aurantii (Boyer de Fonscolombe) is an aphid pest of great agricultural importance, not only due to its polyphagy but mostly due to its ability to transmit various plant viruses e.g.
