Abstract excerpt
A hybrid Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus(CCMV) with the movement protein (MP) gene replaced with that of the closely related Brome mosaic virus cannot infect cowpea systemically. Twenty-nine spontaneous mutants from the hybrid CCMV capable of systemic infection in cowpea appeared through biased cod...
