| two unique us isolates of pepino mosaic virus from a limited source of pooled tomato tissue are distinct from a third (european-like) us isolate. | three strains of pepino mosaic virus (pepmv) found in the us have been cloned and sequenced by rt-pcr using total rna from infected tissue as template, and degenerate potexvirus- and pepmv species- and isolate-specific primers. despite limited source material, the complete nucleotide sequences (6413 and 6410 nts, respectively) of two isolates, pepmv-us1 and pepmv-us2, were obtained and analyzed using total rna from less than 0.2 g of a pooled infected tomato leaf sample from arizona. sequence of ... | 2005 | 15750864 |
