Occurrence of tomato aspermy virus, carnation mottle virus, and a virus from chrysanthemums in New Zealand

Nucleotide sequence and genome organization of carnation mottle virus RNA.

The complete nucleotide sequence of carnation mottle genomic RNA (4003 nucleotides) is presented. The sequence was determined for cloned cDNA copies of viral RNA containing over 99% of the sequence and was completed by direct sequence analysis of RNA and cDNA transcripts. The sequence contains two long open reading frames which together can account for observed translation products. One transla...

Complete Genome Sequence of a Tomato-Infecting Tomato Mottle Mosaic Virus in New York.

The complete genome sequence of an isolate of tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV) infecting tomatoes in New York was obtained using small RNA (sRNA) deep sequencing. ToMMV_NY-13 shared 99% sequence identity with isolates from Mexico and Florida. Broader distribution of this emerging virus is a cause for concern to the tomato industry.

Nucleotide sequence of tomato aspermy virus RNA 2.

RNA 2 of the V strain of tomato aspermy virus (TAV) consists of 3074 nucleotides and contains one open reading frame of 2487 nucleotides. Thus, it resembles RNA 2 of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) strains Q and Fny (62% identical to both), brome mosaic virus (42% identical) and cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (40% identical). In comparisons between amino acid sequences, three different regions of si...

Spatio-temporal expression of miRNAs in tomato tissues upon Cucumber mosaic virus and Tomato aspermy virus infections.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play vital roles in regulating plant growth and development. Recent work has shown that miRNA-mediated regulation of cellular mRNA expression is involved in pathogen-host interactions. However, knowledge about the timing and spatial regulation of plant miRNA expression is still limited. Here, we use stem-loop real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction to quanti...
