| a melting pot of old world begomoviruses and their satellites infecting a collection of gossypium species in pakistan. | clcud in southern asia is caused by a complex of multiple begomoviruses (whitefly transmitted, single-stranded [ss]dna viruses) in association with a specific ssdna satellite; cotton leaf curl multan betasatellite (clcumub). a further single ssdna molecule, for which the collective name alphasatellites has been proposed, is also frequently associated with begomovirus-betasatellite complexes. multan is in the center of the cotton growing area of pakistan and has seen some of the worst problems ca ... | 2012 | 22899988 |
| molecular characterization of a new begomovirus associated with leaf yellow mosaic disease of jatropha curcas in india. | during a survey in june 2011, severe leaf yellow mosaic disease was observed on about 45 % plants of jatropha curcas growing in the katerniaghat wildlife sanctuary in india. an association of a begomovirus with disease was detected in 15 out of 20 samples by pcr using begomovirus genus-specific primers and total dna isolated from symptomatic leaf samples. for identification of the begomovirus, the complete genome was amplified using a phi-29 dna-polymerase-based rolling-circle amplification kit ... | 2015 | 25716923 |
