Biological and molecular characterization of a recombinant isolate of Watermelon mosaic virus associated with a watermelon necrotic disease in Italy
2012-03-01
Abstract excerpt
The biological and molecular characterization is reported of a Watermelon mosaic virus isolate, denoted WMV-Le, associated with a necrotic phenotype of watermelon plants grown in the Provinces of Lecce and Taranto (Apulia, southern Italy). The fully sequenced WMV-Le genome consists of 10,045 nucleotides and is 99.1% similar to that of WMV-C05-270, a French isolate from melon of the WMV molecular group 3. Using rec...
