cotton leaf curl multan betasatellite strains cloned from gossypium barbadense further supports selection due to host resistance.	the cotton leaf curl multan betasatellite encodes an essential pathogenicity determinant involved in induction of disease symptoms. we have shown recently that a recombinant betasatellite with a satellite conserved region derived from the tomato leaf curl betasatellite, is prevalent in the punjab province and is associated with the breakdown of resistance in cotton to cotton leaf curl disease. we intended to see if the betasatellite that was associated with the first epidemic is still being main ...	2012	22644763
regional changes in the sequence of cotton leaf curl multan betasatellite.	cotton leaf curl disease (clcud) in pakistan and northwestern india is caused by monopartite begomoviruses in association with an essential, disease-specific satellite, cotton leaf curl multan betasatellite (clcumb). following a recent upsurge in clcud problems in sindh province (southern pakistan), sequences of clones of clcumb were obtained from sindh and punjab province (central pakistan), where clcud has been a problem since the mid-1980s. the sequences were compared to all sequences of clcu ...	2014	24859342
