| nucleotide sequencing, whitefly transmission, and screening tomato for resistance against two newly described begomoviruses in bangladesh. | abstract the molecular diversity of tomato leaf curl viruses (tolcvs), from the two main tomato growing areas of jessore and joydebpur, bangladesh, was investigated. the viral dna was amplified from tomato plants exhibiting mild and severe symptoms by polymerase chain reaction, and the complete genomes of the tolcvs were sequenced. an isolate of the bipartite tomato leaf curl new delhi virus-severe (tolcndv-svr) was associated with the severe symptom phenotype from jessore (tolcndv-svr[jes]). a ... | 2005 | 18943559 |
| tomato leaf curl gujarat virus, a new begomovirus species causing a severe leaf curl disease of tomato in varanasi, india. | abstract the biological and molecular properties of tomato leaf curl gujarat virus from varanasi, india (tolcgv-[var]) were characterized. tolcgv-[var] could be transmitted by grafting and through whitefly transmission in a persistent manner. the full-length genome of dna-a and dna-b of tolcgv-[var] was cloned in puc18. sequence analysis revealed that dna-a (ay190290) is 2,757 bp and dna-b (ay190291) is 2,688 bp in length. tolcgv-[var] could infect and cause symptoms in tomato, pepper, nicotiana ... | 2003 | 18943612 |
| tomato leaf curl karnataka virus from bangalore, india, appears to be a recombinant begomovirus. | abstract the genome of tomato leaf curl virus (tolcv) from bangalore, india, a whitefly-transmitted geminivirus, was cloned (pind9) and sequenced. the circular dna of 2,759 nucleotides (u38239) is organized similarly to that of other begomoviruses with monopartite genomes. comparison of the nucleotide sequence of pind9 with other tomato-associated begomoviruses from india (tomato leaf curl bangalore virus [tolcbv, z48182]) and tomato leaf curl new delhi virus-severe (tolcndv-svr, u15015) showed ... | 2002 | 18944261 |
