Eola rasp leaf of cherry was first described by Milbrath and
Reynolds in Oregon in 1961. Dr. Cadman of the Scottish Horticultural
Research Institute suggested that this disease was incited by a strain
of tomato ringspot virus (TomRSV), but since then controversial results
with some isolates of EoIa rasp leaf...
Avian myeloblastosis virus RNA was fractionated into a high
molecular weight RNA and a low molecular weight RNA fraction by
sucrose density centrifugation. The larger RNA component had a
sedimentation constant of 65S and the low molecular weight RNA
about 4S. The low molecular RNA has two biological properties of...
A series of studies was conducted to determine the presence
of tobacco rattle virus (TRV), potato virus X (PVX), and other
viruses in wild plants and to evaluate the efficacy of the detection
methods; to characterize and purify an isolate of TRV; and
to study the interaction between TRV and...
The glycoprotein, G, of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus, IHNV,
was shown to be the viral protein which elicits and reacts with neutralizing
antibodies. The G protein also confers protective immunity on immunized
susceptible salmonid hosts to IHNV. The other three structural proteins of
IHNV, N, Ml, and M2, do not...
The development of an effective infectious
hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) vaccine depends on a
better understanding of the antigenic structure and
variation among isolates. Three objectives to elucidate
this were: (1) to generate a panel of antigenic
derivatives of the IHNV glycoprotein by monoclonal
antibody-mediated selection of neutralization-resistant
variant viruses,...
The virulence of selected isolants of infectious hematopoietic
necrosis virus (IHNV) were differentiated and correlated with
electrophoretic mobilities of virion structural proteins by sodium
dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A type 1
electropherotype of IHNV was more virulent for kokanee salmon
(Oncorhynchus nerka) and a type 2 strain more virulent for...
The use of petroleum oil prevented, to varying degrees: the
transmission of three stylet-borne viruses in three different crops.
The use of oils resulted in a marked improvement in the number of
lily bulbs harvested from treated plots as compared to the number of
lily bulbs harvested from untreated plots....
