Cucumovirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Bromoviridae.[3] Plants serve as natural hosts. There are four species in this genus.[1][4]

Taxonomy

The following species are assigned to the genus:[2]

  • Cucumber mosaic virus
  • Gayfeather mild mottle virus
  • Peanut stunt virus
  • Tomato aspermy virus

Structure

Viruses in the genus Cucumovirus are non-enveloped, with icosahedral and Spherical geometries, and T=3 symmetry. The diameter is around 29 nm. Genomes are linear and segmented, tripartite.[1][4]

Genus Structure Symmetry Capsid Genomic arrangement Genomic segmentation
Cucumovirus Icosahedral T=3 Non-enveloped Linear Segmented

Life cycle

Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by penetration into the host cell. Replication follows the positive stranded RNA virus replication model. Positive stranded rna virus transcription, using the internal initiation model of subgenomic rna transcription is the method of transcription. The virus exits the host cell by tubule-guided viral movement. Plants serve as the natural host. Transmission routes are mechanical and contact.[1][4]

Genus Host details Tissue tropism Entry details Release details Replication site Assembly site Transmission
Cucumovirus Plants None Viral movement; mechanical inoculation Viral movement Cytoplasm Cytoplasm Mechanical inoculation: insects; contact

Epidemiology

It is thought that cucumoviruses are present worldwide, being known to occur in Eurasia, Australia, Canada, France, India, Japan, North and South Korea, Morocco, New Zealand, Poland, Spain, the US, and the former USSR. Its natural hosts belong to the domain Eukaryota. The virus is transmitted by vector, mechanical inoculation, grafting, or seeds, and it is transmitted in a non-persistent manner. The vectors may be arthropods, specifically insects of the order Hemiptera, family Aphididae (colloquially one would say cucumovirus is transmitted by aphids).[1]
