1 Introduction At least 20 begomoviruses are known to infect tomato plants in Brazil, with tomato severe rugose virus (ToSRV) being the most prevalent and economically important, particularly in the south and southeast regions (Gorayeb et al. 2024; Krause-Sakate et al. 2020). ToSRV is a member of the species Begomovirus solanumseverugosi and belongs to the genus Begomovirus (family Geminiviridae).

1 Introduction Mixed infections of plant viruses are common in nature and often result in severe plant diseases due to synergic effects of the co-infecting viruses (Moreno and López-Moya 2020). When two or more viruses of the same genus, or even the same family, infect the same host cell, they can exchange genetic material through recombination or reassortment events.
