This study identifies plant host factors involved in geminiviral DNA replication using proximity labeling and functional assays, revealing the selective repurposing of eukaryotic replication machinery.

This study compares the C4 proteins of two okra-infecting geminiviruses, showing they have distinct localization but similar functions in suppressing RNA silencing and causing developmental issues.

This study shows that KL and SL signaling modulate plant immune responses and pathogen resistance, with KL playing a predominant role in regulating pattern-triggered immunity.

This study shows that geminivirus TYLCV uses alternative splicing to generate Rep isoforms with distinct functions in viral replication and gene regulation.
