Background Translational and post-translational protein modifications play a key role in the
response of plants to pathogen infection. Among the latter, phosphorylation is critical in …

F lavescence dorée phytoplasma ( FDp ) infections seriously affect production and survival of
grapevine. We analysed the changes in the flavonoid pathway occurring in two red cultivars…

High-throughput sequencing (HTS) technologies have become indispensable tools assisting
plant virus diagnostics and research thanks to their ability to detect any plant virus in a …

Flavescence dorée is a serious phytoplasma disease affecting grapevine in several European
countries. We studied the interaction of Flavescence dorée phytoplasma with its natural …

Most plant viruses rely on vector transmission for their spread and specific interactions between
vector and virus have evolved to regulate this relationship. The whitefly Bemisia tabaci- …

Flavescence dorée (FD) is considered one of the most severe phytoplasma diseases affecting
grapevine. The spontaneous, complete, and stable remission of the symptoms of FD (…

Brazil. Wherever yam is grown, diseases caused by yam mosaic virus (YMV) are prevalent. …

Since the first report in 2009, at least ten additional viruses have been identified and
assigned to the proposed virus family Alternaviridae. Here we report two new mycoviruses …

Tospoviruses are plant-infecting viruses belonging to the family Bunyaviridae. We used a
collection of wild-type, phylogenetically distinct tomato spotted wilt virus isolates and related …

The widespread use of High-Throughput Sequencing (HTS) for detection of plant viruses and
sequencing of plant virus genomes has led to the generation of large amounts of data and …
