[the c4 proteins of ageratum yellow vein china virus and stachytarpheta leaf curl virus are suppressors of rna silencing].	rna silencing is a highly conserved mechanism in many eukaryotic organisms that involves sequence-specific rna degradation. one of the important roles of rna silencing is antiviral infection. to counter this defense mechanism, many plant viruses have evolved or acquired functional proteins (suppressors) for suppression of rna silencing. geminiviruses are a family of small circular single-stranded dna (ssdna) viruses that cause severe diseases in major crop plants worldwide. ac2 (c2) and ac4 (c4) ...	2007	17436621
stachytarpheta leaf curl virus is a novel monopartite begomovirus species.	begomovirus isolates were obtained from stachytarpheta jamaicensis plants showing leaf curl and chlorosis symptoms collected in the hainan province of china. the complete sequences of isolates hn5-4, hn6-1, hn30 and hn34 were determined to be 2748, 2751, 2748 and 2748 nucleotides long, respectively. the complete sequences of the four isolates share more than 94.9% nucleotide sequence identity, but all of them have less than 86% nucleotide sequence identity with other reported begomoviruses. the ...	2005	15986176
