| a novel recombinant tomato-infecting begomovirus capable of transcomplementing heterologous dna-b components. | the genome of a tomato-infecting begomovirus from ranchi, india, was cloned, sequenced and analysed. the viral genome shared 88.3% sequence identity with an isolate belonging to the species tobacco curly shoot virus (tbcsv), and this virus should therefore be considered a member of a new species, tentatively named tomato leaf curl ranchi virus (tolcrnv). the dna-ß molecule, which had 74.5% sequence identity with tomato leaf curl bangladesh betasatellite (tolcbdb), is named tomato leaf curl ranch ... | 2011 | 21311922 |
| synergistic interaction among begomoviruses leads to the suppression of host defense-related gene expression and breakdown of resistance in chilli. | chilli (capsicum sp.) is one of the economically important spice and vegetable crops grown in india and suffers great losses due to the infection of begomoviruses. conventional breeding approaches have resulted in development of a few cultivars of chilli resistant to begomoviruses. a severe leaf curl disease was observed on one such resistant chilli cultivar (capsicum annuum cv. kalyanpur chanchal) grown in the experimental field of the jawaharlal nehru university, new delhi. four different vira ... | 2016 | 26780359 |
