Prunus necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV) and cherry A (CVA) are two viruses that mainly infect plants of the genus Prunus. Full-length sequences these viruses, collected in Czech Republic from cerasifera plants, were obtained via HTS sequencing. Phylogenetic analyses based on NJ method Splitstree tools showed PNRSV isolate (ON088600-ON088602) is a divergent other molecular groups, sharing less th...

This work describes, for the first time, the changes taking place in the antioxidative system of the leaf apoplast in response to plum pox virus (PPV) in different Prunus species showing different susceptibilities to PPV. The presence of p-hydroxymercuribenzoic acid (pHMB)-sensitive ascorbate peroxidase (APX) (class I APX) and pHMB-insensitive APX (class III APX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), pe...
