molecular characterization and experimental host range of an isolate of wissadula golden mosaic st. thomas virus.	partial genome segments of a begomovirus were previously amplified from wissadula amplissima exhibiting yellow-mosaic and leaf-curl symptoms in the parish of st. thomas, jamaica and this isolate assigned to a tentative begomovirus species, wissadula golden mosaic st. thomas virus. to clone the complete genome of this isolate of wissadula golden mosaic st. thomas virus, abutting primers were designed to pcr amplify its full-length dna-a and dna-b components. sequence analysis of the complete bego ...	2009	19768650
first report of a complete genome sequence for a begomovirus infecting jatropha gossypifolia in the americas.	jatropha gossypifolia is a weed that is commonly found with yellow mosaic symptoms growing along the roadside and in close proximity to cultivated crops in many farming communities in jamaica. for the first time, the complete genome sequence of a new begomovirus, designated jatropha mosaic virus-[jamaica:spanish town:2004] (jmv-[jm:st:04]), was determined from field-infected j. gossypifolia in the western hemisphere. dna-a nucleotide sequence comparisons showed closest identity (84 %) to two tob ...	2014	24872185
