Descripción:	Bean golden mosaic virus (BGMV) belongs to the genus Begomovirus, whose genome is composed of two single-stranded DNA molecules, designated DNA-A and DNA-B, both of which are essential for infectivity. BGMV is transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) in a persistent, circulative manner, causing golden mosaic in common bean. This disease is characterized by yellow-green mosaic of leaves, stunted growth and distorted pods, which may vary among genotypes.
