Abstract excerpt
The genetic diversity of Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV, family Flexiviridae) was assessed by analysing the nucleotide sequences of coat protein (CP) and partial RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) genes. Thirty CymMV sequences from vanilla isolates, obtained in this work by direct sequencing of RT-PCR products, were compared to the sequences from ornamental orchid isolates available in GenBank. The CymMV...
