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

Virucidal Activity of Potassium Hydroxide Modeling on Tospovirus [PDF]
, 2022 ABSTRACT Viral agents that cause disease in the respiratory system have led to widespread health problems in the world. The continuation of mutations in these viruses and the lack of an effective treatment agent bring possible public health risks. In this study, the virucidal activity of potassium hydroxide (KOH) was evaluated.

Asymmetric Trimeric Ring Structure of the Nucleocapsid Protein of Tospovirus. [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2017 ABSTRACT Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), belonging to the genus Tospovirus of the family Bunyaviridae , causes significant economic damage to several vegetables and ornamental plants worldwide. Similar to those of all other negative-strand RNA viruses, the nucleocapsid

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 ...

A call to arms: novel strategies for thrips and tospovirus control
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2023 Thrips and the tospoviruses they transmit are some of the most significant threats to food and ornamental crop production globally. Control of the insect and virus is challenging and new strategies are needed. Characterizing the thrips-virus interactome provides new targets for disrupting the transmission cycle.

Groundnut Bud Necrosis Virus Modulates the Expression of Innate Immune, Endocytosis, and Cuticle Development-Associated Genes to Circulate and Propagate in Its Vector, Thrips palmi [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Thrips palmi (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) is the predominant tospovirus vector in Asia-Pacific region. It transmits economically damaging groundnut bud necrosis virus (GBNV, family Tospoviridae) in a persistent propagative manner.

Antiviral RISC mainly targets viral mRNA but not genomic RNA of tospovirus.
PLoS Pathogens, 2021 Antiviral RNA silencing/interference (RNAi) of negative-strand (-) RNA plant viruses (NSVs) has been studied less than for single-stranded, positive-sense (+)RNA plant viruses.

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).
