Begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) are whitefly-transmitted viruses with single-stranded DNA genomes that are frequently associated with DNA satellites. These satellites include non-coding satellites, for which the name deltasatellites has been proposed. Although the first deltasatellite was identified in the late 1990s, little is known about the effects they have on infections of their helpe...

The complete DNA genome of sweet potato leaf curl virus (SPLCV) from samples obtained from eight regions was amplified by PCR and characterized in this study. The DNA genome of one group (SPLCV Korea group 1) consisted of 2828 nucleotides and that of the second group (SPLCV Korea group 2) consisted of 2829 nucleotides. Sequence comparisons showed that the genome sequences of SPLCV Korea isolate...

Abstract Plant–virus interactions are affected by environmental conditions that determine plant vulnerability to pathogens and the population dynamics of insect vectors. We hypothesize drought enhances horizontal transmission dampening basal immunity plants, which triggers symptom expression vector manipulation. The potato yellow vein virus (PYVV) causes disease (PYVD), a re‐emerging epidemic c...

Potato Virus Y (PVY) is a member of the Potyviridae family – the largest plant virus family. PVY infects Solanaceae – agriculturally important species such as tobacco, potato, pepper, tomato This pathogen causes decrease in yield and quality. PVY isolates have been divided into three main strains: PVYN, PVYO and PVYC, according to the symptoms induced on tobacco and potato. PVYN isolates can be...
