Construction of a full-length infectious cDNA clone of zucchini tigre mosaic virus infecting snake gourd and genetic diversity analysis based on complete genome sequences of ZTMV isolates.

Abstract excerpt

Zucchini tigre mosaic virus (ZTMV) is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus belonging to the genus Potyvirus. In this study, a full-length infectious cDNA clone of a ZTMV strain infecting snake gourd (Trichosanthes cucumerina var. anguina L.) was constructed and shown to infect snake gourd, chieh-qua, zucchini, ridge gourd, and bitter melon. The complete genome sequence of ZTMV-FS7 (PP291701) showed the...
