| genetic and phenotypic variation of the pepper golden mosaic virus complex. | abstract three isolates of the bipartite begomovirus pepper golden mosaic virus (pepgmv) were characterized for genomic and biological properties. the complete nucleotide sequences of the dna-a and dna-b components were determined from infectious clones of pepgmv-serrano (pepgmv-ser), pepgmv-mosaic (pepgmv-mo), and pepgmv-distortion (pepgmv-d). nucleotide sequence identity among pepgmv components ranged from 91 to 96% for dna-a and from 84 to 99% for dna-b, with each pepgmv component most closel ... | 2005 | 18943475 |
| biotic, molecular, and phylogenetic characterization of bean calico mosaic virus, a distinct begomovirus species with affiliation in the squash leaf curl virus cluster. | abstract bean calico mosaic virus (bcmov), a whitefly-transmitted geminivirus from sonora, mexico, was purified, and the genome components were cloned and sequenced. purified viral fractions and cloned genome components were infectious by biolistic inoculation to bean, completing koch's postulates for both. the b biotype of the whitefly bemisia tabaci efficiently transmitted both native virus and progeny virus derived from cloned dna inoculum. host ranges of native virus and of progeny virus der ... | 1999 | 18944770 |
