A New Type of Satellite associated with Cassava Mosaic Begomoviruses

C. D. Aimone, L. De Leon, M. M. Dallas, J. Ndunguru, J. T. Ascencio-Ibanez, L. Hanley-Bowdoin

The paper identifies SEGS-2 as a new type of begomovirus satellite that enhances viral disease severity in cassava by encoding a protein that may also be present in the cassava genome.

Cassava brown streak virus has a rapidly evolving genome: implications for virus speciation, variability, diagnosis and host resistance

T. Alicai, J. Ndunguru, P. Sseruwagi, F. Tairo, G. Okao-Okuja, R. Nanvubya, L. Kiiza, L. Kubatko, M. A. Kehoe, L. M. Boykin

The paper compares the evolutionary rates of Cassava brown streak virus (CBSV) and Ugandan cassava brown streak virus (UCBSV) using whole genome sequences, finding CBSV evolves faster and has more nonsynonymous substitutions.
