| molecular evidence that the aphid-transmitted tomato mild mottle virus belongs to the potyviridae family but not the potyvirus genus. | molecular studies have been carried out on tomato mild mottle virus (tmmv) and 2322 nucleotides of the aphid-transmitted virus have been sequenced. this translates to a 2187 nucleotide open reading frame and a 135 nucleotide untranslated region (utr) followed by a poly a tail. the sequence is consistent with the nib and coat protein regions of a member of the potyviridae family of viruses. sequence comparisons show this virus to have no close relationship with any previously sequenced aphid-tran ... | 2001 | 11811690 |
| analysis of the tomato mild mottle virus genome indicates that it is the most divergent member of the genus ipomovirus (family potyviridae). | the complete genome of a tomato mild mottle virus (tommv) isolate was analysed, and some biological features were characterized. the ssrna genome of tommv from ethiopia encompasses 9283 nucleotides (excluding the 3' poly(a) tail) and encodes a polyprotein of 3011 amino acids. phylogenetic and pairwise comparisons with other members of the family potyviridae revealed that tommv is the most divergent member of the genus ipomovirus, with a genome organization similar to that of members of the speci ... | 2012 | 22080188 |
