Tobacco production in China has been affected by plant viruses with Milk vetch dwarf virus (MDV) as a recent invader posing serious concern. According to most of the studies, MDV mainly infects hosts from Fabaceae family but in our previous study we reported its infection in tobacco Predicted promoter regions of Milk vetch dwarf virus (MDV) components (C1-C11) were isolated and fused with a beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene and the characteristics of the promoters were examined. In transgenic tobacco calli, promoters of MDV C4 (encoding a cell-cycle link protein), C5 and
The efficacy of the nematode parasite Paecilomyces lilacinus, alone and in combination with phenamiphos and ethoprop, for controlling the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica on tobacco and the ability of this fungus to colonize in soil under field conditions were evaluated for 2 years in
The activity of a predicted promoter, PMC8, from Milk vetch dwarf virus was evaluated by comparing it with the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S RNA promoter (P35S) and PNCR, a promoter from Soybean chlorotic mottle virus. When the GUS fusion gene was introduced into tobacco, PMC8 showed a similar
The coding region of the 2S albumin gene of Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa H.B.K.) was completely synthesized, placed under control of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter and inserted into the binary vector plasmid pGSGLUC1, thus giving rise to pGSGLUC1-2S. This was used for
Branched broomrape (Orobanche ramosa L.) is a chlorophyll-lacking, root parasitic plant that infects many crops and wild species (2). Plants are densely hairy with minute, glandular hairs, particularly on flowers and upper stems. Stems are erect, often branched just above the ground, and brown to
Milk vetch dwarf virus (MDV) is a member of the genus Nanovirus, and its genome is composed of multiple circular 1-kb ssDNA components. In this study, we first determined that the diseased tobacco samples obtained in Zhucheng, Shandong Province were naturally infected with MDV using a polymerase
Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) leaves contain virus-inducible type 1 (single chain) ribosome-inactivating proteins that have been named beetins. The structural and functional characterization, the cellular location, and the potential role of beetins as antiviral agents are reported here. Beetins are
Background: Milk vetch dwarf virus (MDV) is an important ssDNA virus which causes yellowing, stunting and leaf rolling symptoms on legumes. In China, the virus causes great economic losses and has recently been found to infect tobacco.
Broomrapes (Orobanche spp.) are obligate parasites that infect roots of dicotyledoneous plants. Orobanche spp. are particularly important in southern and eastern Europe, the Middle East, and north Africa. O. crenata causes severe damage to legume crops, O. cumana threatens sunflower, O. ramosa
During 2011, 96 sclerotial isolates of Rhizoctonia solani were collected from potato tubers from all main potato-cultivating regions of Cyprus. All isolates were found to be multinucleate. Characterization of anastomosis groups (AG) based on hyphal anastomosis reactions showed that 91 isolates
The influence of selected plant species on egg hatch and subsequent development of Heterodera glycines race 3 was investigated. Plants tested included four soybean cultivars, red clover, alfalfa, hairy vetch, field corn, sweet corn, cabbage, tobacco, cotton, and wheat. Soybean stimulated egg
