Towards understanding mastrevirus dynamics and the use of viral metagenomic approaches to identify novel gemini-like circular DNA viruses
Mastreviruses (family Geminiviridae) are plant-infecting viruses with circular single-stranded (ss) DNA genomes (~2.7kb). The genus Mastrevirus is comprised of thirty-two species which are transmitted by leafhoppers belonging to the genus Cicadulina. Mastreviruses are widely distributed and have bee...
