Malvaviscus yellow mosaic virus, a divergent begomovirus carrying a nanovirus‐like nonanucleotide and a modified stem‐loop structure
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) have a circular, ssDNA genome encapsidated in twinned icosahedral particles. Numerous begomoviruses infecting noncultivated malvaceous plants have been described, and evidence suggests that they may have given rise to some of the viruses currently found in crop plants. Here we describe an atypical begomovirus infecting ornamental Turk's hat plants (Malvaviscus arboreus, Malvaceae). Total DNA was extracted, and the viral genome was amplified by rolling‐circle amplification (RCA), cloned and sequenced. Sequence and phylogenetic analyses indicated that the virus corresponds to a new begomovirus phylogenetically related to other malvaceous‐infecting begomoviruses from Brazil, and for which the name malvaviscus yellow mosaic virus (MvYMV) is proposed. M. arboreus plants inoculated with MvYMV infectious clones showed bright yellow mosaic and the virus progeny was identical to the isolate inoculated, thus fulfilling Koch's postulates. Strikingly, MvYMV has a nanovirus/alphasatellite‐like nonanucleotide sequence (5′‐TAGTATTAC‐3′). Moreover, a short sequence located 5′ of the nonanucleotide potentially forms a minor hairpin structure embedded in the major hairpin. Intramolecular interactions involving the sequence of the atypical hairpin structure were predicted and functional analyses were conducted to assess its biological relevance, revealing that the MvYMV Rep protein recognises this unique replication origin but not the typical begomovirus origin. Thus, MvYMV is a begomovirus with an atypical origin of replication and naturally found in noncultivated malvaceous plants.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
