Abstract excerpt
Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV) is a member of the genus Tobamovirus (family Virgaviridae) that causes serious economic losses in cucurbit crops. A possibility for CGMMV control is the use of cross-protection, for which stable attenuated isolates are required. In this study, an infectious clone was constructed for the hn isolate of CGMMV. Unexpectedly, this clone carried a nonconserved mutation...
