vector-enabled metagenomic (vem) surveys using whiteflies (aleyrodidae) reveal novel begomovirus species in the new and old worlds. | whitefly-transmitted viruses belonging to the genus begomovirus (family geminiviridae) represent a substantial threat to agricultural food production. the rapid evolutionary potential of these single-stranded dna viruses combined with the polyphagous feeding behavior of their whitefly vector (bemisia tabaci) can lead to the emergence of damaging viral strains. therefore, it is crucial to characterize begomoviruses circulating in different regions and crops globally. this study utilized vector-en ... | 2015 | 26516898 |
