| tomato yellow leaf curl virus from sardinia is a whitefly-transmitted monopartite geminivirus. | the genome of an isolate of tomato yellow leaf curl virus from sardinia, italy (tylcv-s), a geminivirus transmitted by the whitefly bemisia tabaci, has been cloned and sequenced. the single circular dna molecule comprises 2770 nucleotides. genome organisation closely resembles that of the dna a component of the whitefly-transmitted geminiviruses with a bipartite genome. a 1.8 mer of the tylcv-s genome in a binary vector of agrobacterium tumefaciens is infectious upon agroinoculation of tomato pl ... | 1991 | 1840676 |
| phenotypic and genotypic analysis of rhizobia isolated from pasture legumes native of sardinia and asinara island. | thirty-five rhizobial strains were isolated from nodules of lotus edulis, l. ornithopodioides, l. cytisoides, hedysarum coronarium, ornithopus compressus and scorpiurus muricatus growing in sardinia and asinara island. basic characteristics applied to identification of rhizobia such as symbiotic properties, antibiotic- and salt-resistance, temperate-sensitivities, utilization of different sources of carbon and nitrogen were studied. the results from the 74 metabolic tests were used for cluster a ... | 2004 | 15031655 |
