Hybridization capture increases on-target nanopore sequencing of plant RNA tobamovirus- derived cDNA libraries [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyHigh-throughput sequencing (HTS) can support plant virus surveillance, but host nucleic acids often reduce on-target read recovery. We evaluated a targeted hybridization-capture workflow in which barcoded double-stranded cDNA (ds-cDNA) libraries ...

Viral Infection Risk Driven by Ecological Trait Susceptibility to Habitat Heterogeneity [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 14, July 2026.ABSTRACT Traits for host exploitation that drive the transmission of disease and pathogen emergence are expressed in heterogenous environments. To advance the development of accurate forecasting of infection risk and emergence, determining constraints on ecological strategies for resource use by pathogens over a range of host communities is essential ...

Tobamoviruses CP Proteins Hijack Light‐Induced Protein (NbLIP1) to Promote Viral Replication by Facilitating VRO Formation [PDF]
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2419-2438, April 2026.ABSTRACT Tobamoviruses establish viral replication organelles (VROs) on the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for their replication, a process demanding substantial different types of lipids. However, how viruses efficiently transfer these lipids from other compartments like chloroplasts remains incompletely understood.

Cause of the Scion Death in Green Pepper Grafting System by a Tobamovirus
Research in Plant Disease, 2011 This experiment was attempted to investigate a cause of the scion death in green pepper grafting system. A tobamovirus particle examined in the rootstock of the sample but not in the scion showing necrosis.

Insights Into Virus‐Encoded RNA Silencing Suppressors Across Viral Families: A Focus on Viruses Infecting Solanaceae Crops [PDF]
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT Viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) are proteins that interfere with antiviral defense mechanisms and enhance infection. For plant viruses, VSRs can be encoded in viral genomes and satellite molecules and play an important role in the virus's life cycle and in overcoming host defenses.
