A universal taxonomy of viruses is essential for a comprehensive view of the virus world and
for communicating the complicated evolutionary relationships among viruses. However …

Abstract Knowledge of mycovirus diversity, evolution, horizontal gene transfer and shared
ancestry with viruses infecting distantly related hosts, such as plants and arthropods, has …

Tymovirales is an order of viruses with positive-sense RNA genomes that mostly infect
plants, but also fungi and insects. The number of genome sequences of viruses that could fit …

Viruses that infect fungi are known as mycoviruses and are characterized by the lack of an
extracellular phase. In recent years, the advances on nucleic acids sequencing technologies …

The genus Allexivirus currently includes eight virus species that infect allium plants.
Previously, we showed that there are two distinct groups of allexiviruses (deletion [D]-type …

Taxonomy Potato virus X is the type‐member of the plant‐infecting Potexvirus genus in the
family Alphaflexiviridae. Physical properties Potato virus X (PVX) virions are flexuous …

Plant-virus interactions are greatly influenced by environmental factors such as
temperatures. In virus-infected plants, enhanced temperature is frequently associated with …

Potato virus X (PVX) occurs worldwide and causes an important potato disease. Complete
PVX genomes were obtained from 326 new isolates from Peru, which is within the potato …

Most plant viruses code for movement proteins (MPs) targeting plasmodesmata to enable
cell-to-cell and systemic spread in infected plants. Small membrane-embedded MPs have …

Mixed virus infections threaten crop production because interactions between the host and
the pathogen mix may lead to viral synergism. While individual infections by potato virus A …
