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 |
