Arabis mosaic virus in Grapevines in New York State

distribution of arabis mosaic virus (armv) on grapevines and roses in western and eastern azarbaijan provinces

arabis mosaic virus (armv) belongs to the plant virus genus nepovirus in the family secoviridae. armv is transmitted by several species of the nematode vector in genus xiphinema, and has a very wide natural host range in crop plants and ornamentals.  the objective of this study was to determine the distribution of armv in the vineyards and rose plantations in western and eastern azarbaijan prov...

Electrophoretic Heterogeneity of the Sedimenting Components of Arabis Mosaic Virus

Electrophoretic heterogeneity in preparations of arabis mosaic virus (AMV) was due to differences in net surface charge among the sedimenting components. Bottom component migrated more rapidly than top component in polyacrylamide gels and on cellulose acetate strips. When nucleic acid was removed from bottom component the nucleic acid-free protein shell showed sedimentation and electrophoretic ...

Simultaneous Detection of Arabis Mosaic Virus, Cherry Leafroll Virus and Cucumber Mosaic Virus with Coamplification of Plant mRNA as Internal Control for Olive Certification Programs

Background and Aims: Certification programs of plant propagating materials rely on faster, cheaper and more importantly sensitive and reliable methods for detection of systemic pathogens as indicated in national and/or international health standards of plant propagating materials. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has been documented as an alternative assay for certific...

Coccidioidomycosis in New York State.

Coccidioidomycosis, a systemic fungal disease caused by Coccidioides immitis, is endemic in the southwestern United States and in parts of Mexico and Central and South America. Only sporadic cases have been reported in areas (including New York) where the disease is not endemic. We used hospital discharge records and state mycology laboratory data to investigate the characteristics of C. immiti...
