Potyviruses and the Digital Revolution

Abstract: The potyviruses are one of the two most speciose taxa of plant viruses. Our expanded knowledge of the breadth and depth of their diversity and its origins has depended greatly on the use of computing and the Internet in biological research and is reviewed here. We report a fully supported phylogeny based on gene sequence data for approximately half the named species. The phylogeny shows that the genus probably originated from a virus of monocotyledonous plants and that it first diverged approximately 7250 year… Show more

“…Potyviruses are single-stranded positive sense RNA viruses that represent one of the most speciose taxa of plant viruses and infect a broad range of plant species, including most crop plants, causing severe losses in agriculture worldwide (Gibbs and Ohshima, 2010). The potyviral genome possesses a 3# poly(A) tail but lacks a cap structure at the 5# end, which is instead covalently bound to a virus-encoded protein termed VPg.…”

“…It contains more than 200 definite and tentative species (Berger et al, 2005) which cause significant losses in agricultural, pasture, horticultural and ornamental plants (Ward and Shukla, 1991). They infect a wide range of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plant species and have been found in most parts of the world (Gibbs and Ohshima 2010). Potyvirus distribution is worldwide, they are most prevalent in tropical and subtropical countries (Shukla et al, 1998).…”

“…Many potyviruses are important pathogens of agricultural crops. They are able to infect a wide range of mono-and dicotyledonous plant species [243], causing symptoms that severely reduce the yield and quality of crops. The economic impact of these viruses on agriculture is well-documented [244].…”

“…Rapid rise of academic interest in this topic followed the complete sequencing of the first two potyviruses: TEV [250] and Tobacco vein mottling virus (TVMV) [251]. Many excellent reviews have been published since then [243,246,[252][253][254][255][256]. …”
