Transmission of Begomoviruses

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Begomoviruses: Occurrence and Management in Asia and Africa

Abstract

Transmission is the mechanism of pathogen transfer from an infected plant to another host. Begomoviruses are emerging and economically very important phloem-bound plant pathogens that choose the single species of whitefly, i.e. B. tabaci, as vector for their spread in many crops. Mouthparts of whiteflies are designed to detain begomoviruses while feeding on phloem sap of plants. An interaction between mouthparts and coat protein of virus confers Begomovirus-whitefly specificity. High-degree conservation of capsid protein of begomoviruses is the main reason for the choice of their vector. Once virus particle enters, it further moves along in the body of vector in a persistent circulative manner and is introduced back into the plant with salivary secretion during next feeding. There are many proteins present inside the vector that facilitate the efficient transmission of begomoviruses. Variations in the begomoviral coat protein can change their vector preferences. Viruses have the ability to manipulate the behaviour of their vector to enhance their transmission; as a result, begomoviruses negatively affect the longevity and fertility of their whitefly vector, whereas behaviour of whiteflies and their feeding habits can also affect the population genetics, behaviour and evolution of viruses. Whitefly-Begomovirus relationship is an example of co-evolution, and the studies on transmission mechanism, virus-vector interactions and proteins involved in virus translocation inside the vector can help in developing new virus management strategies.
