Abstract excerpt

Nucleotide sequence comparison shows that sequence variations are mostly clustered in the P (pathogenicity) and V (variable) domains of the potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) molecule. Although these comparisons suggest the P domain as the primary determinant of PSTVd symptom severity, the poten...
