Abstract
The virulence properties of potato virus Y (PVY) towards an allelic series at the pvr2 locus in pepper genotypes are related to variations in the genome-linked viral protein (VPg). Eleven amino acid substitutions in the central part of the VPg were identified in strains differing by their virulence properties and were introduced, either singly or in combination, in an infectious PVY clone to get an in-depth genetic analysis of the virulence determinant. The virulence spectrum of these mutants was evaluated by inoculation of four pepper genotypes carrying different alleles at the pvr2 locus. The mutations introduced had complex effects on virulence, including antagonistic epistasis and trade-offs for virulence towards different pvr2 alleles. In addition, several mutants showed new virulence properties that were unknown in the natural environment. Such complex effects of mutations on plant virus virulence are unprecedented. They provide a better understanding of the variable levels of durability of the resistance conferred by the different pvr2 alleles, and have important consequences for a durable management of the resistances.

Abstract
SUMMARY The yellow mosaic diseases of a number of legumes across Southern Asia are caused by four species of whitefly-transmitted geminiviruses (genus Begomovirus, family Geminiviridae): Mungbean yellow mosaic virus, Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus, Dolichos yellow mosaic virus and Horsegram yellow mosaic virus. They cause losses to a number of important pulse crops, a major source of dietary protein in the region. The viruses have host ranges limited to plants of the family Fabaceae and efforts to limit losses are hampered by limited availability of conventional resistance sources and/or the lack of durability of the resistance that has been identified. There is ample evidence for genetic interaction between these begomoviruses within the legumes, in the form of both classical recombination and component exchange, but little evidence for interaction with viruses that infect other plants. This is indicative of genetic isolation, the viruses in legumes evolving independently of the begomoviruses in plant species of other families. This has implications for the development of engineered resistance in legumes, which holds the promise of durability but has yet to be transferred to the field. TAXONOMY The viruses causing yellow mosaic diseases of legumes across southern Asia, four of which have been identified so far, are bipartite begomoviruses (genus Begomovirus, family Geminiviridae): Mungbean yellow mosaic virus, Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus, Horsegram yellow mosaic virus and Dolichos yellow mosaic virus. Physical properties: The legume yellow mosaic viruses (LYMVs), like all members of the Geminiviridae, have geminate (twinned) particles, 18-20 nm in diameter, 30 nm long, apparently consisting of two incomplete T = 1 icosahedra joined together in a structure with 22 pentameric capsomers and 110 identical protein subunits. DISEASE SYMPTOMS Symptoms caused by LYMVs are largely dependent on host species and susceptibility. Initially symptoms appear as small yellow specks along the veins and then spread over the leaf. In severe infections the entire leaf may become chlorotic. In blackgram the chlorotic areas sometimes turn necrotic. Infections of French bean usually do not produce a mosaic but instead induce a downward leaf curling. DISEASE CONTROL Control is based mainly on preventing the establishment of the whitefly vector, Bemisia tabaci, in the crop by application of insecticides. Changes in agricultural practices, such as moving the cropping period out of periods of high vector incidence (the wet period in late summer) to times of low vector incidence (dry season in early summer) have met with some, albeit short-term, benefits. The use of natural, host plant resistance is efficacious, although the available sources of resistance in most legume crops are limited. In mungbean the resistance is attributed to two recessive genes which are used effectively to control the disease.

Abstract
Begomoviruses are plant DNA viruses for which recombination plays a key role in driving evolution. However, little is known about how frequently begomovirus recombinants arise in mixed infected plants. To tackle this issue, co-infections of tomato with monopartite begomoviruses associated with the tomato yellow leaf curl disease, Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus and Tomato yellow leaf curl virus, have been studied as a model system. The frequency of recombinant genotypes in the progeny populations was evaluated at several times post inoculation. Recombinants constituted a significant proportion of the viral population. Interestingly, not all regions of the genome contributed equally to genetic exchange. In addition to the intergenic region, a known hot spot for recombination, a second hot spot region was found. Implication of secondary structure sequence features in cross-over sites is suggested, which might favor discontinuous DNA replication with the replication complex switching between homologous regions of DNA templates.

Abstract
Tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD)-associated viruses present a highly structured population in the western Mediterranean basin, depending on host, geographical region and time. About 1,900 tomato and common bean samples were analyzed from which 111 isolates were characterized genetically based on a genome sequence that comprises coding and non-coding regions. Isolates of three distinct begomoviruses previously described were found (Tomato yellow leaf curl virus, TYLCV, Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus, TYLCSV, and Tomato yellow leaf curl Málaga virus, TYLCMalV), together with a novel recombinant virus. Mixed infections were detected in single plants, rationalizing the occurrence of recombinants. Except for TYLCV-type strain, single, undifferentiated subpopulations were present for each virus type, probably the result of founder effects. Limited genetic variation was observed in genomic regions, with selection against amino acid change in coding regions.

Abstract
SUMMARY Globally, virus diseases are common in agricultural crops and have a major agronomic impact. They are countered through the deployment of genetic resistance against the virus, or through the use of a range of farming practices based upon the propagation of virus-free plant material and the exclusion of the virus vectors from the growing crop. We review here the current status of our knowledge of natural virus resistance genes, and consider the future prospects for the deployment of these genes against virus infection.

Abstract
Potyviruses have variable single-stranded RNA genomes and many show clear evidence of recombination. This report studied the distribution of recombination sites in the genomes of 92 isolates of the potyvirus Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV); 42 came from the international gene sequence databases and an additional 50 complete genomic sequences were generated from field samples collected in Europe and Asia. The sequences were examined for evidence of recombination using seven different sequence comparison methods and the exact position of each site was confirmed by sequence composition analysis. Recombination sites were found throughout the genomes, except in the small 6K1 protein gene, and only 24 of the genomes (26%) showed no evidence of recombination. Statistically significant clusters of recombination sites were found in the P1 gene and in the CI/6K2/VPg gene region. Most recombination sites were bordered by an upstream (5') region of GC-rich and downstream (3') region of AU-rich sequence of a similar length. Correlations between the presence and type of recombination site and provenance, host type and phylogenetic relationships are discussed, as is the role of recombination in TuMV evolution.

Abstract
Genetic exchange by recombination, or reassortment of genomic segments, has been shown to be an important process in RNA virus evolution, resulting often in important phenotypic changes affecting host range and virulence. However, data from numerous systems indicate that reassortant or recombinant genotypes could be selected against in virus populations and suggest that there is coadaptation among viral genes. Little is known about the factors affecting the frequency of reassortants and recombinants along the virus life cycle. We have explored this issue by estimating the frequency of reassortant and recombinant genotypes in experimental populations of Cucumber mosaic virus derived from mixed infections with four different pairs of isolates that differed in about 12% of their nucleotide sequence. Genetic composition of progeny populations were analyzed at various steps of the virus life cycle during host colonization: infection of leaf cells, cell-to-cell movement within the inoculated leaf, encapsidation of progeny genomes, and systemic movement to upper noninoculated leaves. Results indicated that reassortant frequencies do not correspond to random expectations and that selection operates against reassortant genotypes. The intensity of selection, estimated through the use of log-linear models, increased as host colonization progressed. No recombinant was detected in any progeny. Hence, results showed the existence of constraints to genetic exchange linked to various steps of the virus life cycle, so that genotypes with heterologous gene combinations were less fit and disappeared from the population. These results contribute to explain the low frequency of recombinants and reassortants in natural populations of many viruses, in spite of high rates of genetic exchange. More generally, the present work supports the hypothesis of coadaptation of gene complexes within the viral genomes.

Abstract
The genetic structure of natural populations of Alaskan barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV)-PAV, BYDV-PAS, and cereal yellow dwarf virus (CYDV)-RPV from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and oats (Avena sativa L.) in Alaska were analyzed between 2002 and 2004. PCR products spanning the viral coat protein gene of 187 isolates were cloned and sequenced. The majority (78%) were similar to BYDV-PAS, 19% were similar to CYDV-RPV, and only about 3% resembled BYDV-PAV. The CYDV-RPV isolates clustered in three groups: 44, 17, and 39% resembled RPS-like CP from Mexico, resembled RPV-like CP from New York, or formed a unique clade that was RPV/RPS recombinant CP, respectively. The patterns of genetic variation of PAS and RPV varied little over time or with respect to host plant. The difference in spatial and temporal population genetic structures of the PAS and RPV isolates suggests that these two viruses are influenced by different agroecological factors. Sequence of PCR products spanning the carboxyl terminus of the polymerase gene, the intergenic region, and most of the coat protein gene of RPV revealed two probable ancestral recombination events for some isolates.

Abstract
Mutation, reassortment, and recombination are the major sources of genetic variation of plant viruses (García-Arenal et al., 2001; Worobey & Holmes, 1999). During mixed infections, viruses can exchange genetic material through recombination or reassortment of segments (when the parental genomes are fragmented) if present in the same cell context of the host plant. Hybrid progeny viruses might then arise, some of them with novel pathogenic characteristics and well adapted in the population that can cause new emerging diseases. Genetic exchange provides organisms with a tool to combine sequences from different origins which might help them to quickly evolve (Crameri et al., 1998). In many DNA and RNA viruses, genetic exchange is achieved through recombination (Froissart et al., 2005; Martin et al., 2005). As increasing numbers of viral sequences become available, recombinant viruses are recognized to be frequent in nature and clear evidence is found for recombination to play a key role in virus evolution (Awadalla, 2003; Chenault & Melcher, 1994; Moonan et al., 2000; Padidam et al., 1999; Revers et al., 1996; García-Arenal et al., 2001; Moreno et al., 2004). Understanding the role of recombination in generating and eliminating variation in viral sequences is thus essential to understand virus evolution and adaptation to changing environments Knowledge about the existence and frequency of recombination in a virus population might help understanding the extent at which genes are exchanged and new virus variants arise. This information is essential, for example, to predict durability of genetic resistance because new recombinant variants might be formed with increased fitness in host-resistant genotypes. Determination of the extent and rate at which genetic rearrangement through recombination does occur in natural populations is also crucial if we use genome and genetic-mapping information to locate genes responsible of important phenotypes such as genes associated with virulence, transmission, or breakdown of resistance. Therefore, better estimates of the rate of recombination will facilitate the development of more robust strategies for virus control (Awadalla, 2003).

Abstract
The distribution of multi-host pathogens over their host range conditions their population dynamics and structure. Also, host co-infection by different pathogens may have important consequences for the evolution of hosts and pathogens, and host-pathogen co-evolution. Hence it is of interest to know if the distribution of pathogens over their host range is random, or if there are associations between hosts and pathogens, or between pathogens sharing a host. To analyse these issues we propose indices for the observed patterns of host infection by pathogens, and for the observed patterns of co-infection, and tests to analyse if these patterns conform to randomness or reflect associations. Applying these tests to the prevalence of five plant viruses on 21 wild plant species evidenced host-virus associations: most hosts and viruses were selective for viruses and hosts, respectively. Interestingly, the more host-selective viruses were the more prevalent ones, suggesting that host specialisation is a successful strategy for multi-host pathogens. Analyses also showed that viruses tended to associate positively in co-infected hosts. The developed indices and tests provide the tools to analyse how strong and common are these associations among different groups of pathogens, which will help to understand and model the population biology of multi-host pathogens.

Abstract
Citrus psorosis virus (CPsV), the type species of genus Ophiovirus, has a segmented, negative-stranded RNA genome. We examined the population structure and genetic variation of CPsV in three coding regions located in RNAs 1, 2 and 3, analysing 22 isolates from Argentina, California, Florida, Italy and Spain. Most isolates contained a predominant sequence and some minor variants. Estimations of the genetic diversity and phylogenetic clustering of isolates disclosed two populations, one comprising isolates from Spain, Italy, Florida and California and the other including the Argentinean isolates. Isolate CPV-4 (from Texas) included for comparison was distant from both groups, suggesting that it belongs to a third group. The low ratio between non-synonymous and synonymous nucleotide substitutions indicated strong selection for amino acid sequence conservation, particularly in the coat protein gene. Incongruent phylogenetic relationships in different genomic regions suggested that exchange of genomic segments may have contributed to CPsV evolution.

Abstract
A survey of six potato viruses, Potato virus A (PVA), Potato virus M (PVM), Potato virus S(PVS), Potato virus X (PVX), Potato virus Y (PVY), and Potato leafroll virus (PLRV), was conducted in New York and Maine during 2002 and 2003. Leaf samples were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and PVY-positive samples were further tested to determine whether a necrotic strain of PVY (PVYN) or a strain able to induce necrosis in tobacco and in potato tubers (PVYNTN) were present. In both years, PVY and PVS were identified in a majority of the samples, and mixed infections predominated in 83% of the symptomatic leaves in 2002. Of the total 394 PVY-positive samples, 3 reacted with monoclonal antibody (MAb) 1F5 and caused veinal necrosis (VN) in tobacco. Two of these isolates caused tuber necrosis in the potato cv. Yukon Gold. Three PVY isolates reacted with MAb 1F5 but did not cause VN in tobacco, and two caused VN but did not react with MAb 1F5. None of these eight isolates were able to overcome the Ry resistance gene in the potato cultivar Eva, but several were able to overcome the Ny resistance gene found in Allegany. PVYN isolates were not widespread in the northeastern United States; however, several PVY isolates differed from both PVYN and the ordinary strain of PVY and may represent strain recombinants.

Abstract
Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) is the most important rice-infecting virus in Africa. Highly resistant rice (Oryza spp.) cultivars Gigante and Tog5681 were challenged with virus isolates from five countries of the west and central African Sudano-savannah zone in order to investigate the occurrence and prevalence of resistance-breaking (RB) isolates. High resistance was overcome by 38.6% of the isolates. RB isolates could be divided into three main pathogenic groups. Isolates of the first group (17.5%) and of the second group (16.4%) were able to break down the resistance of Gigante only and of Tog5681 only, respectively. Resistance in both cultivars was overcome simultaneously by isolates of the third group (4.7%). In each group, some isolates induced symptoms, whereas plant infection by others was evidenced only by serological tests. RB isolates occurred in all five countries with varying frequencies (19 to 57%). The wide geographical distribution and high frequencies of RB isolates represent a high risk for the durability of resistance to RYMV in the Sudano-savannah zone.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The population structure of Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV), which has caused severe epidemics in tomato in Spain since 2000, was analyzed. Isolates were characterized by the nucleotide sequence of the triple gene block and coat protein gene and, for a subset of isolates, a part of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase gene. The full-length sequence of the genomic RNA of a Solanum muricatum isolate from Peru also was determined. In spite of high symptom diversity, the Spanish population of PepMV mostly comprised highly similar isolates belonging to the strain reported in Europe (European tomato strain), which has been the most prevalent genotype in Spain. The Spanish PepMV population was not structured spatially or temporally. Also, isolates highly similar to those from nontomato hosts from Peru (Peruvian strain) or to isolate US2 from the United States (US2 strain) were detected at lower frequency relative to the European strain. These two strains were detected in peninsular Spain only in 2004, but the Peruvian strain has been detected in the Canary Islands since 2000. These results suggest that PepMV was introduced into Spain more than once. Isolates from the Peruvian and US2 strains always were found in mixed infections with the European tomato strain, and interstrain recombinants were detected. The presence of different strains of the virus, and of recombinant isolates, should be considered for the development of control strategies based on genetic resistance.

Abstract
An appreciation of the risks caused by emergent plant viruses is critical in tropical areas that rely heavily on agriculture for subsistence and rural livelihood. Molecular ecology, within 10 years, has unraveled the factors responsible for the emergence of several of the economically most important tropical plant viruses: Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV), Cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs), Maize streak virus (MSV), and Banana streak virus (BSV). A large range of mechanisms--most unsuspected until recently--were involved: recombination and synergism between virus species, new vector biotypes, genome integration of the virus, host adaptation, and long-distance dispersal. A complex chain of molecular and ecological events resulted in novel virus-vector-plant-environment interactions that led to virus emergence. It invariably involved a major agricultural change: crop introduction, cultural intensification, germplasm movement, and new genotypes. A current challenge is now to complement the analysis of the causes by an assessment of the risks of emergence. Recent attempts to assess the risks of emergence of virulent virus strains are described.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl Málaga virus are monopartite begomoviruses (genus Begomovirus, family Geminiviridae) that infect common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), causing bean leaf crumple disease (BLCD). This disease was found to be widespread in southern Spain and causes stunted growth, flower abortion, and leaf and pod deformation in common bean plants. Commercial yield losses of up to 100% occur. In the present study, we have identified and characterized a resistance trait to BLCD-associated viruses in the common bean breeding line GG12. This resistance resulted in a complete absence of BLCD symptoms under field conditions or after experimental inoculation. Our analysis showed that virus replication was not inhibited. However, a severe restriction to systemic virus accumulation occurred in resistant plants, suggesting that cell-to-cell or long-distance movement were impaired. In addition, recovery from virus infection was observed in resistant plants. The reaction of P. vulgaris lines GG12 (resistant) and GG14 (susceptible), and of F(1), F(2), and backcross populations derived from them, to TYLCV inoculation suggested that a single dominant gene conferred the BLCD resistance described here.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The host range of a pathogen can have special consequences on its evolution and the evolution of its virulence. For generalists, adaptation to different hosts may be conditioned by different trade-offs in the pathogen's life history and be affected by evolutionary processes that shape pathogen populations. We have examined adaptation of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) to different hosts, and analyzed the relationship between host adaptation and virulence. For this, six CMV isolates from central Spain from three different hosts were compared for the ability to multiply and to affect host growth. These analyses were done before and after an experimental evolution process consisting of 10 serial passages in the original host of the isolate. The differential capacity to infect different hosts was compatible with host adaptation. However, the capacity to multiply in different hosts did not provide evidence of host adaptation and was not improved after 10 passages, suggesting that fitness of the natural population of CMV was at, or near to, its maximum. No relationship was found between capacity of multiplication and virulence in any of the three different hosts. These results suggest that the "trade-off" model for the evolution of virulence may not apply to CMV.

Abstract
The role of recombination in the evolution of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) was analyzed in a collection of Spanish isolates from 1989 to 2002. Isolates were characterized by ribonuclease protection assay using six RNA probes, two for each of the three genomic RNAs, which allowed the identification of the analyzed regions as belonging to CMV isolates in subgroups IA, IB, and II. Most isolates belonged to subgroups IA (64%) and IB (12%), 5% were reassortants among subgroups IA, IB, or II, and 17% were recombinants between these groups. Recombinants at RNA3 were significantly more frequent than recombinants at RNAs 1 and 2. One IB-IA recombinant RNA3 was as frequent in central Spain as the IA RNA3. The genetic structure of the virus population suggested that reassortants and most recombinant genotypes were selected against and was consistent with a higher biological cost of reassortment than recombination. Data also suggest that recombinants that encode hybrid proteins are at a higher disadvantage than recombinants that exchange whole ORFs.
