The Potyviridae is the largest family of RNA plant viruses, members which have single-stranded, positive-sense genomes and flexuous filamentous particles 680-900 nm long 11-20 wide. There are eight genera, distinguished by host range, genomic features phylogeny member viruses. Genomes range from 8.2 to 11.3 kb, with an average size 9.7 kb. Most monopartite but those genus Bymovirus bipartite. Some cause serious disease epidemics in cultivated plants. This a summary International Committee on...
The family Potyviridae includes plant viruses with single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes of 8-11 kb and flexuous filamentous particles 650-950 nm long 11-20 wide. Genera in the are distinguished by host range, genomic features phylogeny member viruses. Most monopartite, but those members genus Bymovirus bipartite. Some cause serious disease epidemics cultivated plants. This is a summary International Committee on Taxonomy Viruses (ICTV) Report Potyviridae, which available at...
Seed is the main source of infection narrow-leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius) crops by cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). The ELISA procedure currently used for large-scale, routine testing seed samples, but a more sensitive, reliable and labour-saving assay needed which detects levels as low 0.1%. A Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) using ground dry samples was developed this purpose. Primers based on concensus sequences eight published CMV coat protein cDNAs (RNA3) subgroups 1 2 were used....
The southwest Australian floristic region (SWAFR) is an internationally recognized ‘hot spot’ of global biodiversity and has endangered flora. It represents a unique interface between ancient ecosystem recent agroecosystem, providing the opportunity to investigate encounters where recipient virus introduced crop donor native plant vice versa. Phylogenetic analysis coat‐protein genes was used study isolates three potyviruses representing different ‘new encounter’ scenarios at this interface....
As cuisine becomes globalized, large volumes of fresh produce are traded internationally. The potential exists for pathogens infecting to hitchhike new locations and perhaps establish there. It is difficult identify them using traditional methods if novel, scarce, and/or unexpected. In an attempt overcome this limitation, we used high-throughput sequencing technology as a means detecting all RNA viruses garlic (Allium sativum L.) bulbs imported into Australia from China, the USA, Mexico,...
Cryptostylis ovata is a terrestrial orchid endemic to southwestern Australia. The virus status of C. has not been studied. Eighty-three samples from 16 populations were collected, and sequencing was used identify RNA viruses them. In one population, all tested plants co-infected with isolates the exotic-to-Australia Ornithogalum mosaic (OrMV) bean yellow (BYMV). another plant infected BYMV. No detected in remaining populations. OrMV isolate shared 98-99% nucleotide identity identified wild...
Nicotiana benthamiana is a model plant utilised internationally in virology because of its apparent hyper-susceptibility to virus infection. Previously, others showed that all laboratory accessions N. have very narrow genetic basis, probably originating from single source. It unknown if responses infection exhibited by the accession are typical species as whole. To test this, 23 were collected wild populations and challenged with one four viruses. Additionally, 21 other subspecies Australia,...
With increasing human global population, increased yield under saline conditions is a desirable trait for major food crops. Use of endophytes, isolated from halophytic hosts, seems to be an exciting approach conferring salt tolerance salt-sensitive crop. Therefore, in the current study, fungal endophytes were plants’ roots and their ability withstand vitro stress was evaluated. The could up 1M NaCl concentrations this independent host or tissue source. When inoculated on wheat...
Seven complete genomes and 64 coat protein gene sequences belonging to Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) isolates from different continents were examined for evidence of genetic recombination using six recombination-detection programs. In the seven a single genome related Clover vein (ClYVV), eight patterns was found by four or more programs, giving firm their presence, five additional detected three fewer tentative occurrence. When nucleotide BYMV one ClYVV genes analyzed, in 21 (32%). With...
Fifteen full-length wheat grain avenin-like protein coding genes (TaALP) were identified on chromosome arms 7AS, 4AL, and 7DS of bread with each containing five genes. Besides the a- b-type ALPs, a c type was in current paper. Both b types have two subunits, named x y types. The three consisted x-type genes, y-type one c-type gene. a-type typically 520 bp length, whereas 850 470 length. ALP gene transcript levels significantly up-regulated Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt)-infected...
Genetic diversity of Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) was studied by comparing sequences from the coat protein (CP) and genome-linked viral (VPg) genes isolates four continents. CP compared were those 17 new 47 others already on database, while VPg used 10 database. Phylogenetic analysis revealed seven distinct groups, six polytypic one monotypic. The largest most genetically diverse group, which had intragroup 0.061 nucleotide substitutions per site, contained natural infections in eight...
