| a universal pcr primer to detect members of the potyviridae and its use to examine the taxonomic status of several members of the family. | a universal primer (sprimer: 5'-ggx aay aay agy ggx caz cc-3', x = a, g, c or t; y = t or c; z = a or g), designed from the consensus sequences that code for the conserved sequence gnnsgqp in the nib region of members of the family potyviridae, was used to amplify by rt-pcr the 3'-terminal genome regions from infected plant samples representing 21 different viruses in the family. sequencing of some of the fragments (c. 1.7 kb) showed that the type strain (attc pv-107) of oat necrotic mottle viru ... | 2001 | 11402861 |
| a mosaic disease of senna hirsuta induced by a potyvirus in nigeria. | a virus inducing mosaic and severe leaf malformation, isolated from senna hirsuta in nigeria, was studied. the virus had a rather narrow host range, infecting a few species in caesalpinaceae, chenopodiaceae and fabaceae families. the virus was widespread in southern nigeria with prevalence ranging from 74% to 86.4% in some locations. it was transmitted mechanically and in a non-persistent manner by myzuspersicae, aphis craccivora and a. spiraecola. there was no evidence of transmission by seeds. ... | 2001 | 11719985 |
| potyviruses, novel and known, in cultivated and wild species of the family apiaceae in australia. | three potyviruses were identified by gene sequencing and found to be widespread in species of apiaceae in australia. only celery mosaic virus was found in celery crops and in one of 180 specimens of feral carrot ( daucus carota). another related but distinct novel potyvirus, carrot virus y, was the only virus found in carrot crops and all except one feral carrot. a more distantly related novel potyvirus, apium virus y, was found in plants of sea celery ( apium prostratum), cultivated parsley ( p ... | 2002 | 12376749 |
