Complex of Virus-Like Particles Containing Double-Stranded RNA from Thielaviopsis basicola.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Six randomly selected isolates of Thielaviopsis basicola were found to contain spherical virus-like particles (VLPs) approximately 40 nm in diameter. One isolate, ATCC 34114, selected for further analysis contained a complex of VLPs that sedimented as eight or more bands in sucrose density gradients and contained five size classes of double-stranded RNA. Five discrete precipitation lines were obtained in immunoelectrophoresis, which indicated that this isolate of T. basicola contains five distinct species of VLPs.

Site-specific binding of viral plus single-stranded RNA to replicase-containing open virus-like particles of yeast.
X double-stranded RNA is a deletion mutant of L-A double-stranded RNA and is encapsidated in viral particles by the L-A-encoded major coat protein. X double-stranded RNA has all the cis sites necessary to be transcribed, encapsidated, and replicated. We have cloned X double-stranded RNA and sequenced it. The complete X double-stranded RNA sequence deduced indicates that the first 25 bases of th...
متن کاملAssociation of RNA polymerase complexes of the parasitic protozoan Cryptosporidium parvum with virus-like particles: heterogeneous system.
RNA polymerase complexes were purified from Cryptosporidium parvum, a parasitic protozoan known to infect many species of mammals including humans. Western blot analysis revealed the association of the complexes with two different proteins, encoded by large and small segments of viral double-stranded RNAs. Each complex was found to contain only double-stranded RNA, both double- and single-stran...
متن کاملSurvey of Meloidogyne incognita and Thielaviopsis basicola: Their Impact on Cotton Fruiting and Producers' Management Choices in Infested Fields.
A survey of 100 cotton fields selected randomly in 1995 and 1996 was conducted in the High Plains of Texas to determine the incidence and potential severity of Meloidogyne incognita and Thielaviopsis basicola. Information was obtained from producers for each field on their nematicide application rates and fungicide seed treatments. The percent of squares and bolls set was evaluated for 20 plant...
متن کاملMorphological and chemical characteristics of doubled haploids of flue-cured tobacco combining resistance to Thielaviopsis basicola and TSWV
Thielaviopsis basicola and Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) are the most important problems in a moderate climate zone. Previously obtained doubled haploids (DH) of F1 hybrids of the flue-cured line WGL3 resistant to Th. basicola and the dark-cured line PW-834 carrying RTSW-al gene provided the research material. Biological tests and SCAR markers linked with TSWV were applied to confirm resista...
متن کاملEffectiveness of combining resistance to Thielaviopsis basicola and Tomato spotted wilt virus in haploid tobacco genotypes
Black root rot (BRR) caused by Thielaviopsis basicola as well as Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) are the most serious problems in tobacco growing regions. We crossed the breeding line WGL 3 carrying BRR resistance derived from N.glauca with the line PW-834 the resistance of which to TSWV was transferred from cultivar Polalta. Anthers obtained from F(1) hybrid plants were cultured to induce hap...
