Genetic diversity of potato leafroll virus is shaped by variant displacements and selective pressures imposed by aphid and tuber transmission routes.

Graham H. Cowan, Catherine Thomson, Emma J. Back, Lesley Torrance, Christophe Lacomme, E. V. Ryabov

The paper investigates how genetic diversity of PLRV is influenced by aphid and tuber transmission routes, finding that aphid transmission reduces structural gene diversity while tuber transmission maintains non-structural gene diversity.
