Most plant viruses are absolutely dependent on a vector for plant-to-plant spread. Although
a number of different types of organisms are vectors for different plant viruses, phloem …

Most plant viruses rely on vector organisms for their plant-to-plant spread. Although there
are many different natural vectors, few plant virus–vector systems have been well studied …

In this review, encouraged by the dictum of Theodosius Dobzhansky that “Nothing in biology
makes sense except in the light of evolution”, we outline the likely evolutionary pathways …
