  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. Bunyavirales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunyavirales

    Bunyaviruses belong to the fifth group of the Baltimore classification system, which includes viruses with a negative-sense, single-stranded RNA genome. They have an enveloped, spherical virion. Though generally found in arthropods or rodents, certain viruses in this order occasionally infect humans. Some of them also infect plants. [6]

  4. Pepper mild mottle virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepper_mild_mottle_virus

    Findings supporting border crossing for plant viruses into the invertebrate and vertebrate worlds [12] [13] Controlling the virus is important for pepper production worldwide, but recent research shows that this plant disease may be transmitted to humans. [14] [15] PMMoV is an indicator of fecal pollution in the environment.

  5. List of diseases spread by arthropods - Wikipedia

    For example, the human body louse transmits the bacterium Rickettsia prowazekii which causes epidemic typhus. Although invertebrate-transmitted diseases pose a particular threat on the continents of Africa, Asia and South America, there is one way of controlling invertebrate-borne diseases, which is by controlling the invertebrate vector.

  6. Carlavirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlavirus

    Most species infect only a few hosts and cause infections with few or no symptoms, for example, American hop latent virus and lily symptomless virus. Some, such as blueberry scorch virus and poplar mosaic virus, cause serious illnesses. (Foster)

  7. Plant pathology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_pathology

    Unlike human and animal pathology, plant pathology usually focuses on a single causal organism; however, some plant diseases have been shown to be interactions between multiple pathogens. [ 4 ] To colonize a plant, pathogens have specific pathogenicity factors , of five main types: uses of cell wall–degrading enzymes, toxins , effector ...

  8. Arbovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbovirus

    Tibovirus (tick-borne virus) is sometimes used to more specifically describe viruses transmitted by ticks, a superorder within the arthropods. [2] Arboviruses can affect both animals (including humans) and plants. [3] In humans, symptoms of arbovirus infection generally occur 3–15 days after exposure to the virus and last three or four days.

  9. Geminiviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geminiviridae

    These viruses are responsible for a significant amount of crop damage worldwide. Epidemics of geminivirus diseases have arisen due to a number of factors, including the recombination of different geminiviruses coinfecting a plant, which enables novel, possibly virulent viruses to be developed. Other contributing factors include the transport of ...
