Description
Summary:The common bean is a host for a large number of begomoviruses (genus Begomovirus , family Geminiviridae ) in the New World. Based on the current taxonomic criteria established for the genus Begomovirus , two new members of this genus infecting common bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris ) in Cuba are herein reported. The cloned bipartite genomes, composed of DNA-A and DNA-B, showed the typical organization of the New World begomoviruses. We propose the names common bean severe mosaic virus and common bean mottle virus for the new begomovirus species.
