Tospoviruses (Family Bunyaviridae, Genus Tospovirus)
EDIS, 2005 Viruses in the genus Tospovirus cause significant worldwide crop losses. The genus name is derived from the name of its first member, Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV). Initially observed in Australia in 1915, the spotted wilt disease of tomato was later

Tospoviruses Induce Small Interfering RNAs Targeting Viral Sequences and Endogenous Transcripts in Solanaceous Plants [PDF]
Pathogens, 2022 Tospoviruses infect numerous crop species worldwide, causing significant losses throughout the supply chain. As a defence mechanism, plants use RNA interference (RNAi) to generate virus-derived small-interfering RNAs (vsiRNAs), which target viral ...

Five questions on the cell-to-cell movement of Orthotospoviruses [PDF]
BBA AdvancesPlant viruses employ Movement proteins (MP) for their cell to cell spread through plasmodesmata (PD). MP modifies the PD and increases its size exclusion limit (SEL).
