| circomics of cuban geminiviruses reveals the first alpha-satellite dna in the caribbean. | circomics (circular dna genomics), the combination of rolling circle amplification (rca), restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp) analysis and pyro-sequencing, has been used recently to identify geminiviruses with high efficiency and low costs. circular dnas associated with cuban geminiviruses were characterised by rca/rflp analysis and 454 sequencing of two batches of dna amplified from selected plant samples as well as individual cloning and sanger sequencing of dna components and comp ... | 2014 | 24943118 |
| Begomoviruses infecting weeds in Cuba: increased host range and a novel virus infecting Sida rhombifolia. | As a result of surveys conducted during the last few years to search for wild reservoirs of begomoviruses in Cuba, we detected a novel bipartite begomovirus, sida yellow mottle virus (SiYMoV), infecting Sida rhombifolia plants. The complete genome sequence was obtained, showing that DNA-A was 2622 nucleotides (nt) in length and that it was most closely related (87.6% nucleotide identity) to DNA-A of an isolate of sida golden mosaic virus (SiGMV) that infects snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) in Fl ... | 2011 | 21964921 |
