  2. Transmission of plant viruses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_of_plant_viruses

    Since viruses are obligate intracellular parasites they must develop direct methods of transmission, between hosts, in order to survive. The mobility of animals increases the mechanisms of viral transmission that have evolved, whereas plants remain immobile, and thus plant viruses must rely on environmental factors to be transmitted between hosts.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Category:Plant pathogens and diseases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Plant_pathogens...

    This category includes economically significant plant diseases and the organisms that cause them including, fungi, bacteria, protists and viruses. For more information on plant pathology see phytopathology. For insects that transmit plant pathogens see Insect vectors of plant pathogens.

  5. Plant disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_disease

    Plant diseases are diseases in plants caused by pathogens (infectious organisms) and environmental conditions (physiological factors). [1] Organisms that cause infectious disease include fungi , oomycetes , bacteria , viruses , viroids , virus -like organisms, phytoplasmas , protozoa , nematodes and parasitic plants . [ 2 ]

  6. Impatiens necrotic spot orthotospovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impatiens_necrotic_spot...

    The infected cell also starts to create movement proteins that facilitate the movement of the virus through the plant making the plasmodesmata (connections between plant cells) large enough to allow the virus to move throughout the plant. The virus can then also infect other plants by either the infected sap or a vector, such as an insect ...

  7. Tomato yellow leaf curl virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomato_yellow_leaf_curl_virus

    The virus can be efficiently transmitted during the adult stages. This virus transmission has a short acquisition access period of 15–20 minutes, and latent period of 8–24 hours. In this plant-virus and vector system, females are more effective than males transmitting the virus. [1]

  8. Plant pathology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_pathology

    Plant disease triangle. Epidemiology is the study of factors affecting the outbreak and spread of infectious diseases. [10] A disease triangle describes the basic factors required for plant diseases. These are the host plant, the pathogen, and the environment. Any one of these can be modified to control a disease. [11]

  9. Tomato spotted wilt orthotospovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomato_spotted_wilt_orthot...

    Transmission electron micrograph of tomato spotted wilt virus. The circulative propagative transmission of TSWV is carried out by at least ten different species of thrips. [2] The most common species is Frankliniella occidentalis (western flower thrips) as it is the vector that predominantly transmits TSWV globally and in greenhouses.
