Complete Nucleotide Sequence of an Australian Isolate of Turnip mosaic virus before and after Seven Years of Serial Passaging

An Investigation on characterization of cucumber mosaic virus isolated from lily green house in Damavand County, Iran

Background and Aims: Virus infections represent some of the most important diseases of lily, plants because of the devastating effects caused to the crops and the absence of effective treatments. A survey for virus diseases of lilies, revealed the occurrence of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) in plants growing in Tehran province, Iran. Materials and Methods: During 2013, 50 lily samples with virus-...

Study 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...

Transient expression of green fluorescent protein in radish (Raphanus sativus) using a turnip mosaic virus based vector

It is possible to use transgenic plants, as bioreactors, for the production of recombinant inexpensive chemicals and drug components. Transient gene expression is an appropriate alternative to stable transformation because it allows an inexpensive and rapid method for expression of recombinant proteins in plant tissues. In recent years, plant viral vectors have been increasingly developed as su...

Sequence Analysis of Expressed cDNA of Bean Common Mosaic Virus RU1 Isolate

Phylodynamic evidence of the migration of turnip mosaic potyvirus from Europe to Australia and New Zealand.

Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) is a potyvirus that is transmitted by aphids and infects a wide range of plant species. We investigated the evolution of this pathogen by collecting 32 isolates of TuMV, mostly from Brassicaceae plants, in Australia and New Zealand. We performed a variety of sequence-based phylogenetic and population genetic analyses of the complete genomic sequences and of three non-...
