Abstract
Papaya leaf curl disease (PaLCD) was primarily detected in India and causes major economic damage to agriculture crops grown globally, seriously threatening food security. Begomoviruses are communicated by the vector Bemisia tabaci, and their transmission efficiency and persistence in the vector are the highest, exhibiting the widest host range due to adaptation and evolution. Symptoms induced during PaLCD include leaf curl, leaf yellowing, interveinal chlorosis, and reduced fruit quality and yield. Consequently, plants have evolved several multi-layered defense mechanisms to resist Begomovirus infection and distribution. Subsequently, Begomovirus genomes organise circular ssDNA of size ~2.5–2.7 kb of overlapping viral transcripts and carry six–seven ORFs encoding multifunctional proteins, which are precisely evolved by the viruses to maintain the genome-constraint and develop complex but integrated interactions with a variety of host components to expand and facilitate successful infection cycles, i.e., suppression of host defense strategies. Geographical distribution is continuing to increase due to the advent and evolution of new Begomoviruses, and sweep to new regions is a future scenario. This review summarizes the current information on the biological functions of papaya-infecting Begomoviruses and their encoded proteins in transmission through vectors and modulating host-mediated responses, which may improve our understanding of how to challenge these significant plant viruses by revealing new information on the development of antiviral approaches against Begomoviruses associated with PaLCD.
