Abstract excerpt
Repeated passage of soil-borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV; wild-type Oklahoma field isolate; designated Okl-0) by manual inoculation resulted in deletion of part of SBWMV RNA2. Deletion was apparent in the population of RNA2 molecules after only 11 weeks in primary inoculated wheat plants (called Okl-1) and after 5 passages (Okl-5; 20 weeks) no full-length RNA2 remained. The extent of deletion in the Oklahoma...
