Abstract excerpt

Recombinant genomes derived from the Logan and CFH strains of the geminivirus beet curly top virus (BCTV) have been constructed and analyzed for pathogenicity on Nicotiana benthamiana and sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). Infectivity assays indicated that the latent period on N. benthamiana was prim...
