Abstract
Geminiviruses are plant pathogens that replicate by a rolling-circle m echanism, analogous to that used by several prokaryotic ssDNA replicon s. Recent reports provide important progress in understanding the stru cture and functioning of replication origin from these viruses. We hav e used these data to propose models for the initiation of replication in dicot- and monocot-infecting geminiviruses.
