  2. Plant virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_virus

    Plant virus transmission strategies in insect vectors. Plant viruses need to be transmitted by a vector, most often insects such as leafhoppers. One class of viruses, the Rhabdoviridae, has been proposed to actually be insect viruses that have evolved to replicate in plants. The chosen insect vector of a plant virus will often be the ...

  3. Geminiviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geminiviridae

    Geminiviridae is a family of plant viruses that encode their genetic information on a circular genome of single-stranded (ss) DNA. There are 520 species in this family, assigned to 14 genera. There are 520 species in this family, assigned to 14 genera.

  4. Orthornavirae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthornavirae

    Genome type and replication cycle of different RNA viruses. RNA viruses in Orthornavirae typically do not encode many proteins, but most positive-sense, single-stranded (+ssRNA) viruses and some double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) viruses encode a major capsid protein that has a single jelly roll fold, so named because the folded structure of the protein contains a structure that resembles a jelly ...

  5. Sedoreoviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedoreoviridae

    Some viruses of this family, such as phytoreoviruses and oryzaviruses, infect plants. Most of the plant-infecting reoviruses are transmitted between plants by insect vectors. The viruses replicate in both the plant and the insect, generally causing disease in the plant, but little or no harm to the infected insect. [7]: 148

  6. Virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virus

    When control of plant virus infections is considered economical, for perennial fruits, for example, efforts are concentrated on killing the vectors and removing alternate hosts such as weeds. [13]: 802 Plant viruses cannot infect humans and other animals because they can reproduce only in living plant cells. [13]: 799–807

  7. Plant pathology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_pathology

    Plant pathogens, organisms that cause infectious plant diseases, include fungi, oomycetes, bacteria, viruses, viroids, virus-like organisms, phytoplasmas, protozoa, nematodes and parasitic plants. [2] In most plant pathosystems, virulence depends on hydrolases and enzymes that degrade the cell wall.

  8. Introduction to viruses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_viruses

    Plant viruses are often spread from plant to plant by insects and other organisms, known as vectors. Some viruses of humans and other animals are spread by exposure to infected bodily fluids. Viruses such as influenza are spread through the air by droplets of moisture when people cough or sneeze.

  9. Orthotospovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthotospovirus

    Orthotospovirus is a genus of negative-strand RNA viruses, in the family Tospoviridae of the order Bunyavirales, which infects plants. Tospoviruses take their name from the species Tomato spotted wilt orthotospovirus (TSWV) which was discovered in Australia in 1919.
