| molecular and biological characterization of a new tomato mild yellow leaf curl aragua virus strain producing severe symptoms in tomato. | tomato mild yellow leaf curl aragua virus (tomylcv) is a begomovirus first reported infecting tomato (solanum lycopersicum) and milkweed (euphorbia heterophylla) in venezuela. in this study, a tomylcv isolate (zulia-219) was completely sequenced and its host range was evaluated. the dna-a and dna-b components of isolate zulia-219 showed 93 and 85% nucleotide sequence identity with the respective counterparts of the tomylcv type strain. according to current demarcation criteria for begomovirus sp ... | 2017 | 28639222 |
| molecular characterization of a new begomovirus that infects euphorbia heterophylla and solanum lycopersicum in venezuela. | we report the complete nucleotide sequence of a begomovirus isolate infecting euphorbia heterophylla and tomato (solanum lycopersicum) in central venezuela. based on the current taxonomic criteria for the genus begomovirus, the isolate was shown to represent a novel species, tentatively named euphorbia mosaic venezuela virus (eumvv). its dna-a is most closely related to those of euphorbia-infecting begomoviruses from the caribbean and central america. the dna b component forms a phylogenetic clu ... | 2011 | 22052541 |
