Zygocactus virus X-based expression vectors and formation of rod-shaped virus-like particles in plants by the expressed coat proteins of Beet necrotic yellow vein virus and Soil-borne cereal mosaic virus

Interactions Between Beet necrotic yellow vein virus and Beet soilborne mosaic virus in Sugar Beet

Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) and Beet soilborne mosaic virus (BSBMV) are members of the genus Benyvirus (9). Both viruses infect members of the family Chenopodiaceae, most notably sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), and are transmitted by the plasmodiophorid, Polymyxa betae (1,2). BNYVV infection causes rhizomania disease in sugar beet (4,21); however, BSBMV infection does not (28). BSBMV...

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

expression of cucumber mosaic virus coat protein and its assembly into virus like particles

background cucumber mosaic virus (cmv) has isometric particles with a diameter of about 28–29 nm. a useful method to recognize regions from mutagenesis in the coat protein (cp) gene are important for particle assembly and the expression of viral in cp expression systems like bacteria such as e.coli or yeast as well as their assembly into virus-like particles (vlp). objectives in this paper, we ...

Molecular Biology of the Beet necrotic yellow vein virus

Beet necrotic yellow vein virus is the etiological agent of one of the most devastating sugar beet viral diseases: rhizomania. This review describes the molecular biology of the rhizomania disease, the functions of the BNYVV encoded proteins, the consequences of their expression as well as the biology of the BNYVV vector, Polymyxa betae. Root proliferation is an important part of the well-known...

Nucleotide Sequence of Beet Necrotic Yellow Vein Virus RNA-1

The complete nucleotide sequence of beet necrotic yellow vein virus RNA-1 is presented. The R N A molecule is 6746 nucleotides long excluding the poly(A) tail and has one long open reading f lame encoding a polypeptide of M r 237 389. The 3' terminal 60 residues of BNYVV RNA-1 display extensive sequence homology with the corresponding portions of BNYVV RNA-2, -3 and -4. Addi t ional 3' terminal...
