Characterization of a new Apple dimple fruit viroid variant that causes yellow dimple fruit formation in ‘Fuji' apple trees
2010-10-01
Abstract excerpt
A 303-nucleotide viroid was isolated from an apple tree (Malus × domestica, ‘Fuji') cultivated in Japan. The viroid had 84.9% overall nucleotide sequence homology to Apple dimple fruit viroid (ADFVd), a member of Pospiviroidae, reported from Italy. This viroid differed from the Italian variant by 47 mutations (38 substitutions, six deletions and three insertions), and most of these mutations occurred on either sid...
