Nepoviruses: General Properties, Diseases, and Virus Identification
One of the select number of plant viruses studied in the prenucleoprotein era of virology was first obtained in the United States from tobacco plants with a ringspotting disease (Fromme et al., 1927). This virus,...

Nepoviruses: Ecology and Control
Previous chapters have described the general and molecular characteristics of nepoviruses, their importance as pathogens, and their transmission by nematodes. This chapter deals with their survival and spread ...

Plant Viruses with Bipartite RNA Genomes and Polyhedral Particles
Of the 47 genera of plant viruses recognized by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (Murphy et al., 1995), 33 have genomes composed of single-stranded, positive-sense RNA. Of these 33 genera, 9 hav...

Raspberry Bushy Dwarf Idaeovirus
In the 1930s and 1940s, Lloyd George became one of the most widely planted cultivars of red raspberry (Rubus idaeus) in Britain. It was grown for its flavor and quality and, in Scotland, for its resistance to soi...

Proposed classification of the bipartite-genomed raspberry bushy dwarf idaeovirus, with tripartite-genomed viruses in the familyBromoviridae
Raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV) has an unusual combination of properties and has been classified as the sole member of a new plant virus genus, for which the name idaeovirus has been proposed. Particles of ...

Parsnip yellow fleck and rice tungro spherical viruses resemble picornaviruses and represent two genera in a proposed new plant picornavirus family (Sequiviridae)
Parsnip yellow fleck and rice tungro spherical viruses, with monopartite ss RNA genomes, resemble picornaviruses in the polymerase and NTP-binding domains of their encoded polyproteins. Though in separate gene...

Specificity and Recognition Events in the Transmission of Plant Viruses by Vectors
Most plant viruses need a plant-feeding organism to transmit them between plants. The vector species and the type of relation the virus has with it are highly specific. Vector specificity is determined by reco...

Parsnip Yellow Fleck Virus, Type Member of a Proposed New Plant Virus Group, and a Possible Second Member, Dandelion Yellow Mosaic Virus
Parsnip yellow fleck virus (PYFV) (Murant and Goold, 1968; Murant, 1974) has isometric particles approximately 30 nm in diameter, which contain a single species of ssRNA of unusually high molecular weight,appr...

Transmission by Vectors
The first recorded experimental transmission by a natural vector of a plant virus with filamentous particles (here termed a filamentous virus) appears to have been that of sugarcane mosaic potyvirus by the aphid
