This study examines how host replacement dynamics influence virulence and genome evolution in a plant RNA virus, showing that sudden transitions lead to faster virulence changes and more severe symptoms.

The paper investigates how epigenetic modifications in Arabidopsis thaliana affect the evolution of Turnip Mosaic Virus, identifying gene expression patterns and viral targets.

The paper investigates how mutations in TuMV's VPg protein affect its interactions with host proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana, revealing their impact on viral adaptation and plant tolerance.

This study experimentally evolves plant RNA viruses with horizontally transferred sequences, finding that some are purged while others are stably maintained and provide a replicative advantage.
