Tomato yellow leaf curl virus intergenic siRNAs target a host long noncoding RNA to modulate disease symptoms.
Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and its related begomoviruses cause fast-spreading diseases in tomato worldwide.How this virus induces diseases remains largely unclear.Here we report a noncoding RNA-mediated model to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of TYLCV-tomato interaction and disease development.The circular ssDNA genome of TYLCV conta
