Abstract excerpt
Serial passaging of wild-type Helicoverpa armigera single-nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (HaSNPV) in H. zea (Hz-AM1) insect cell cultures results in rapid selection for the few polyhedra (FP) phenotype. A unique HaSNPV mutant (ppC19) was isolated through plaque purification that exhibited a partial many polyhedra (MP) and FP phenotype. On serial passaging in suspension cell cultures, ppC19 produced fivefold...
