Understanding the biochemistry of DNA replication of the plant DNA viruses is important for the development of antiviral strategies. Since DNA replication is little studied in plants, a genetically tractable, easily culturable, eukaryotic model system is required to pursue such studies in a facile manner. Here we report the development of a yeast model system that supports DNA replication of a chosen geminivirus strain, Indian mung bean yellow mosaic virus. The replication of plasmid DNA in the model system relies specifically on the virus-derived elements and factors. Usage of this model system revealed the role of at least one hitherto unknown viral factor for viral DNA replication. The episomal characteristic of single-strandedness of replicated plasmid DNA was shown, and the expression of viral genes was also confirmed. This model system is expected to shed light on the machinery and mechanism involved in geminiviral DNA replication in plants.
