Genetic diversity of<i>Plum pox virus</i>: strains, disease and related challenges for control
2013-07-29
Abstract excerpt
Plum pox virus (PPV), a member of the genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae, is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus. RNA viruses tend to be genetically diverse because the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase responsible for virus replication lacks proofreading capacity. Consequently, PPV is genetically diverse, and nine strains of the virus (D, M, EA, C, Rec, W, T, CR, and An) have been identified to date. At...
