Population diversity of cassava mosaic begomoviruses increases over the course of serial vegetative propagation

2021-03-22

Abstract excerpt

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) represents a serious threat to cassava, a major root crop for more than 300 million Africans. CMD is caused by single-stranded DNA begomoviruses that evolve rapidly, making it challenging to develop durable disease resistance. In addition to the evolutionary forces of mutation, recombination, and reassortment, factors such as climate, agriculture practices, and the presence of DNA sate...
