GENETIC DIVERSITY AND BIOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF WATERMELON MOSAIC VIRUS ISOLATES FROM IRAN

phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...

Study of resistance to cucumber mosaic virus watermelon mosaic virus and zucchini yellow mosaic virus in melon cultivars

Characterization of Coat Protein Gene of Cucumber Mosaic Virus Isolates in Iran

Background: Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) from the Bromoviridae family, is one of the most widespread plant viruses in the world. Objectives: In the present study tomato fields in Guilan, Isfahan, Khorasan Razavi, Khuzestan and Tehran provinces were surveyed to determine the presence of CMV subgroups during 2011-2012. Materials and Methods: Out of 305 symptomatic leaf samples ...

Characterization of Celery Mosaic Virus from Celery in Tehran Province

Background and Aims: Celery mosaic virus (CeMV) is one of the causal agents of viral diseases in celery (Apium graveolens). CeMV is a member of the Potyvirus genus in Potyviridae family. The virus is naturally transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent manner. During growing season 2006-2007 viral disease symptoms were observed in celery fields grown in Tehran Province (Bage daneshkade, Mohamads...

Inheritance of resistance to zucchini yellow mosaic virus and watermelon mosaic virus in watermelon.

High resistance to zucchini yellow mosaic virus-China strain (ZYMV-CH) and moderate resistance to watermelon mosaic virus (WMV) were found in a selection of PI 595203 (Citrullus lanatus var. lanatus), an Egusi type originally collected in Nigeria. Mixed inoculations showed primarily that these two viruses have no cross-protection. This fact may explain the high frequency of mixed infection ofte...
