ranunculus alpestris/nicotine

Wild plant species were systematically sampled to characterize reproduction of thrips, the vector of Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), and natural sources TSWV infection. Thrips populations were monitored on 28 common perennial, biennial, and annual plant species over two noncrop seasons at six

Ranunculus white mottle virus (RWMV) (1), genus Ophiovirus, has been reported in crops of several cultivars of commercial ranunculus (Ranunculus asiaticus hybrids) during the 1990s in Liguria in Northwest Italy. Symptoms associated with RWMV in ranunculus are not clear-cut owing to the presence of

Bituminaria bituminosa (L.) Stirton (pitch trefoil) is a perennial legume endemic to the Mediterranean Basin used as forage in arid areas and for stabilization of degraded soils. Mosaic and chlorotic ringspot symptoms have been observed in leaves of B. bituminosa in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur

SUMMARY Taxonomy: Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) is a member of genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae. ZYMV is a positive-strand RNA virus. Physical properties: Virions are flexuous filaments of 680-730 nm in length and 11-13 nm in diameter, composed of about 2000 subunits of a single 31-kDa

ABSTRACT Overwintering of tobacco thrips, Frankliniella fusca, was investigated on common winter annual host plants infected with Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV). Populations of tobacco thrips produced on TSWV-infected plants did not differ from those produced on healthy plants, whereas populations

We analysed and compared the functioning of UV-B screening pigments in plants from marine, fresh water and terrestrial ecosystems, along the evolutionary line of cyanobacteria, unicellular algae, primitive multicellular algae, charophycean algae, lichens, mosses and higher plants, including
