Abstract excerpt

Temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV), which exhibited no polyhedra formation at the non-permissive temperature of 33 degrees C, were produced using the base analogue 5-bromodeoxyuridine. A unique ts mutant, designated ts-S1, was characterized in terms of...
