Abstract excerpt
Rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV) with rice tungro spherical virus (RTSV) causes the destructive tungro disease of rice. In order to ascertain the molecular variability of RTBV in India, primers were designed to amplify a polymorphic DNA fragment of the virus. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis on a number of field isolates indicated mixed infections and...
