Beijerinck's work on tobacco mosaic virus: historical context and legacy.
Beijerinck's entirely new concept, launched in 1898, of a filterable contagium vivum fluidum which multiplied in close association with the host's metabolism and was distributed in phloem vessels together with plant nutrients, did not match the then prevailing bacteriological germ theory. At the time, tools and concepts to handle such a new kind of agent (the viruses) were non-existent. Beijeri...
متن کاملSolubility Studies on Purified Tobacco Mosaic Virus
Different samples of purified tobacco mosaic virus show a relatively wide variation in solubility in ammonium sulfate solution. This variation and the type of solubility curve obtained in the presence of varying amounts of solid phase show that the purified virus whether isolated by mild treatment with ammonium sulfate or by ultracentrifugation is not a homogeneous chemical substance but contai...
متن کاملStudy on Genetic Diversity of Terminal Fragment Sequence of Isolated Persian Tobacco Mosaic Virus
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is one of the devastating plant viruses in the world that infects more than 200 plant species. Movement protein plays a supportive role in the movement of other plant viruses, and viral coat protein is highly expressed in infected plants and affects replication and movements of TMV. In order to investigate genetic variation in the terminal fragment sequence in Iranian...
متن کاملTobacco mosaic virus replicase and replicative structures.
The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (replicase) mediating the replication of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) has been investigated in a number of laboratories over a period of 20 years. Cell-free enzyme preparations have been prepared which can continue the synthesis of nascent complementary RNA, initiated in vivo; however, the enzyme does not require, nor does it respond to, exogenous viral RNA as a t...
متن کاملEffect of Potato Virus Y and Tobacco Mosaic Virus on Field - Grown Burley Tobacco
SIEVERT, R. C. 1978. Effect of potato virus Y and tobacco mosaic virus on field-grown burley tobacco. Phytopathology 68: 823-825. Yield, grade index, crop index, value per kilogram, and tobacco had less nicotine and TMV-infected tobacco had less value per hectare were reduced when Burley 37 became a-amino nitrogen, but tobacco infected with TMV+PVY had infected with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), ...
