Cucumber mosaic virus infection leads to mosaic symptoms on a broad range of crop plants.
Mutation at positions 129 in the coat protein of virus causes alterations in the severity of …

Abstract Myzus persicae (Sulzer)(Homoptera: Aphididae) is one of the most important
agricultural pests worldwide. In addition to sucking phloem sap, M. persicae also transmits …

As obligate parasites, plant viruses need to move from infected to healthy plants in order to
survive. This is achieved either by mechanical means or, in the case of most plant viruses …

Maize chlorotic mottle virus has been rapidly spreading around the globe over the past
decade. The interactions of maize chlorotic mottle virus with Potyviridae viruses causes an …

Ipomoviruses (genus Ipomovirus) are whitefly‐transmitted viruses assigned to the family
Potyviridae. They are characterised by filamentous flexible particles and a positive‐sense …

The family Bromoviridae consists of five genera: Alfamovirus, Bromovirus, Cucumovirus,
Ilarvirus and Oleavirus. All viruses in these genera possess tripartite genomes of single …

Electrostatic properties of cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV) and cucumber mosaic virus
(CMV) were investigated using numerical solutions to the Poisson–Boltzmann equation …

BACKGROUND The cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is well‐known for its expansive host
range and distribution, resulting in a detrimental effect on agricultural production, thus …

Most plant viruses rely on vector transmission for their spread and specific interactions
between vector and virus have evolved to regulate this relationship. The whitefly Bemisia …
