Abstract excerpt
To elucidate the genomic determinants of Potato virus X (PVX) strains, which cause diverse responses in host plants, we determined the complete genomic RNA sequences of four Japanese PVX strains: PVX-BS, -BH, -OG, and -TO. These four strains, plus the previously sequenced PVX-OS strain, differ in their pathogenicity in wild potato (Solanum demissum) and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun NN). The genomic...
