| rnase protection analyses show high genetic diversity among field isolates of satellite tobacco mosaic virus. | fifteen field isolates of satellite tobacco mosaic virus (stmv) were collected from wild nicotiana glauca plants within a 20-km2 area in southern california. analyses of the entire length of the satellite genomic rna of each isolate by rnase protection assays showed that there were 10 different genotypes within the 15 isolates, including some with regions of extreme divergence from the stmv type strain. this indicates a very high level of genetic diversity between natural stmv populations. isola ... | 1993 | 8480428 |
