Multiple Introductions of the Old World Begomovirus Tomato yellow leaf curl virus into the New World▿

Abstract
A phylogenetic analysis of three genomic regions revealed that Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) from western North America is distinct from TYLCV isolated in eastern North America and the Caribbean. This analysis supports a second introduction of this Old World begomovirus into the New World, most likely from Asia.
