Item World management of geminiviruses(Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2018) Rojas, Maria R.; Macedo, Monica A.; Maliano, Minor R.; Soto-Aguilar, Maria; Souza, Juliana O.; Briddon, Rob W.; Kenyon, Lawrence; Bustamante, Rafael F. Rivera; Zerbini, F. Murilo; Adkins, Scott; Legg, James P.; Kvarnheden, Anders; Wintermantel, William M.; Sudarshana, Mysore R.; Peterschmitt, Michel; Lapidot, Moshe; Martin, Darren P.; et al.Management of geminiviruses is a worldwide challenge because of the widespread distribution of economically important diseases caused by these viruses. Regardless of the type of agriculture, management is most effective with an integrated pest management (IPM) approach that involves measures before, during, and after the growing season. This includes starting with resistant cultivars and virus- and vector-free transplants and ropagative plants. For high value vegetables, protected culture (e.g., greenhouses and screenhouses) allows for effective management but is limited owing to high cost. Protection of young plants in open fields is provided by row covers, but other measures are typically required. Measures that are used for crops in open fields include roguing infected plants and insect vector management. Application of insecticide to manage vectors (whiteflies and leafhoppers) is the most widely used measure but can cause undesirable environmental and human health issues. For annual crops, these measures can be more effective when combined with host-free periods of two to three months. Finally, given the great diversity of the viruses, their insect vectors, and the crops affected, IPM approaches need to be based on the biology and ecology of the virus and vector and the crop production system. Here, we present the general measures that can be used in an IPM program for geminivirus diseases, specific case studies, and future challenges.Item Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: second update 2018(Archives of Virology, 2019-04) Zerbini, F.

Murilo; Brown, Judith K.; Navas-Castillo, Jesús; Moriones, Enrique; Ramos-Sobrinho, Roberto; Silva, José C. F.; Fiallo-Olivé, Elvira; Briddon, Rob W.; Hernández-Zepeda, Cecilia; Idris, Ali; Malathi, V. G.; Martin, Darren P.; Rivera-Bustamante, Rafael; Ueda, Shigenori; Varsani, ArvindViruses of the genus Begomovirus (family Geminiviridae) are emergent pathogens of crops throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. By virtue of having a small DNA genome that is easily cloned, and due to the recent innovations in cloning and low-cost sequencing, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of available begomovirus genome sequences. Even so, most of the available sequences have been obtained from cultivated plants and are likely a small and phylogenetically unrepresentative sample of begomovirus diversity, a factor constraining taxonomic decisions such as the establishment of operationally useful species demarcation criteria. In addition, problems in assigning new viruses to established species have highlighted shortcomings in the previously recommended mechanism of species demarcation. Based on the analysis of 3,123 full-length begomovirus genome (or DNA-A component) sequences available in public databases as of December 2012, a set of revised guidelines for the classification and nomenclature of begomoviruses are proposed. The guidelines primarily consider a) genus-level biological characteristics and b) results obtained using a standardized classification tool, Sequence Demarcation Tool, which performs pairwise sequence alignments and identity calculations. These guidelines are consistent with the recently published recommendations for the genera Mastrevirus and Curtovirus of the family Geminiviridae. Genome-wide pairwise identities of 91 % and 94 % are proposed as the demarcation threshold for begomoviruses belonging to different species and strains, respectively. Procedures and guidelines are outlined for resolving conflicts that may arise when assigning species and strains to categories wherever the pairwise identity falls on or very near the demarcation threshold value.Item Complete nucleotide sequences of two new begomoviruses infecting the wild malvaceous plant Melochia sp. in Brazil(Archives of Virology, 2015-10-01) Fiallo-Olivé, Elvira; Zerbini, F. Murilo; Navas-Castillo, JesúsWild malvaceous plants are hosts for a large number of begomoviruses (genus Begomovirus, family Geminiviridae) in both the Old World and the New World. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of two new begomoviruses from Melochia sp. plants from Brazil. The cloned bipartite genomes, composed of DNA-A and DNA-B, showed the typical organization of the New World begomoviruses but they were distantly related to the genomes of other begomoviruses. We propose the names Melochia mosaic virus and Melochia yellow mosaic virus for these begomoviruses.Item ICTV virus taxonomy profile: Geminiviridae(Journal Of General Virology, 2017-02-08) Zerbini, F. Murilo; Briddon, Rob W; Idris, Ali; Martin, Darren P; Moriones, Enrique; Castillo, Jesús Navas; Bustamante, Rafael Rivera; Roumagnac, Philippe; Varsani, ArvindThe geminiviruses are a family of small, non-enveloped viruses with single stranded, circular DNA genomes of 2500–5200 bases. Geminiviruses are transmitted by various types of insect (whiteflies, leafhoppers, treehoppers and aphids). Members of the genus Begomovirus are transmitted by whiteflies, those in the genera Becurtovirus, Curtovirus, Grablovirus, Mastrevirus and Turncurtovirus are transmitted by specific leafhoppers, the single member of the genus Topocuvirus is transmitted by a treehopper and one member of the genus Capulavirus is transmitted by an aphid. Geminiviruses are plant pathogens causing economically important diseases in most tropical and subtropical regions of the world. This is a summary of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the taxonomy of the Geminiviridae which is available at www.ictv.global/ report/geminiviridae.Item Virus taxonomy in the age of metagenomics(Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2017-03) Simmonds, Peter; Adams, Mike J.; Benko, Mária; Breitbart, Mya; Brister, J. Rodney; Zerbini, F. Murilo; Carstens, Eric B.; Davison, Andrew J.; Delwart, Eric; Gorbalenya, Alexander E.; Harrach, Balázs; Hull, Roger; King, Andrew M.Q.; Koonin, Eugene V.; Krupovic, Mart; Kuhn, Jens H.; Lefkowitz, Elliot J.; et al.The number and diversity of viral sequences that are identified in metagenomic data far exceeds that of experimentally characterized virus isolates. In a recent workshop, a panel of experts discussed the proposal that, with appropriate quality control, viruses that are known only from metagenomic data can, and should be, incorporated into the official classification scheme of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). Although a taxonomy that is based on metagenomic sequence data alone represents a substantial departure from the traditional reliance on phenotypic properties, the development of a robust framework for sequence-based virus taxonomy is indispensable for the comprehensive characterization of the global virome. In this Consensus Statement article, we consider the rationale for why metagenomic sequence data should, and how it can, be incorporated into the ICTV taxonomy, and present proposals that have been endorsed by the Executive Committee of the ICTV.Item Evidence for a complex of emergent poleroviruses affecting pepper worldwide(Archives of Virology, 2018-01-25) Fiallo-Olivé, Elvira; Navas-Hermosilla, Elisa; Ferro, Camila G.; Zerbini, F. Murilo; Navas-Castillo, JesúsIn recent years, symptoms of vein yellowing and leaf roll in pepper crops associated with the presence of poleroviruses (genus Polerovirus, family Luteoviridae) have been emerging in many countries worldwide. Spain was the first country in Europe where the yellowing disease of pepper was observed. In this work, a polerovirus isolate from Spain that infects pepper and has been shown to be transmitted by the aphid Aphis gossyppii (Spain-Almería 2-2013) was sequenced and compared with isolates from Japan, Israel, China and Australia. The genome (6125 nt in length, GenBank accession number KY523072) of the isolate from Spain has the typical organization of poleroviruses and contains seven open reading frames (ORF0 to ORF5 and ORF3a), putatively encoding proteins P0 to P5 and P3a. A comparison of the sequence from Spain with the four complete sequences available for poleroviruses infecting pepper showed a closer relationship to the isolate from Israel and supports the existence of a complex of at least five polerovirus species. Given that the symptoms caused by all pepper poleroviruses described to date are similar, if not identical, we propose to name them “pepper vein yellows virus 1” to “pepper vein yellows virus 5” (PeVYV-1 to PeVYV-5), with PeVYV-5 corresponding to the polerovirus from Spain described in this work. Our results and those published over the last few years have shown that the emergent poleroviruses threatening pepper crops around the world are highly complex due to recombination events.Item ICTV virus taxonomy Profile: Potyviridae(Journal of General Virology, 2017-02-09) Zerbini, F. Murilo; Wang, Aiming; Stenger, Drake; Rabenstein, Frank; Praveen, Shelly; Ohshima, Kazusato; López-Moya, Juan José; Kreuze, Jan; Chalam, Celia; Adams, Mike; Wylie, Stephen JThe Potyviridae is the largest family of RNA plant viruses, members of which have single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes and flexuous filamentous particles 680–900 nm long and 11–20 nm wide. There are eight genera, distinguished by the host range, genomic features and phylogeny of the member viruses. Genomes range from 8.2 to 11.3 kb, with an average size of 9.7 kb. Most genomes are monopartite but those of members of the genus Bymovirus are bipartite. Some members cause serious disease epidemics in cultivated plants. This is a summary of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the taxonomy of the Potyviridae, which is available at www.ictv.global/report/potyviridae.
