Complete genome sequence analysis of Narcissus yellow stripe virus infecting Narcissus tazetta in India

Nucleotide sequence of narcissus mosaic virus RNA.

The nucleotide sequence of the genomic RNA of narcissus mosaic virus (NMV) was deduced from a set of cDNA clones and by direct sequencing of RNA. The genome, with a length of 6955 nucleotides [excluding the 3'poly(A) tail], contains six open reading frames (ORFs) with the capacity to code for polypeptides of more than 10K, with Mr values of 186284, 25845, 13998, 11059, 26097 and 10519. The firs...

Flower development and senescence in Narcissus tazetta ‘Kashmir Local’

Flower development and senescence was studied in Narcissus tazetta ‘Kashmir Local’. Flower development was divided into six stages (I-VI), from the tight bud stage to the senescent stage. Flower fresh and dry weight increased as the flowers progressed from bud to bloom and then declined during senescence. Membrane permeability of tepal tissues increased as the flower progressed through various ...

Molecular cloning and the cDNA-derived amino acid sequence of Narcissus tazetta isolectins.

Recently several complete cDNAs encoding the Narcissus tazetta lectins (NTL) were cloned. The sequence analyses of the cloned DNAs reveal that there are at least three unidentical positive clones for NTLs. The primary structure of the three NTL clones contains a mature polypeptide consisting of 105 amino acids and a C-terminal peptide extension beyond the C-terminal amino acids Thr-Gly. There a...

بررسی آلکالویید‌های گیاه نرگس (Narcissus tazetta L.)

مقدمه: گیاه نرگس متعلق به خانواده Amaryllidaceae گیاهی است تک لپه، پایا و دارای پیاز. این گیاه زینتی معطر، دارای آلکالوییدهای متنوعی است که خواص ضدتوموری، ضدویروسی و آنتی‌کولینرژیک دارند. هدف: این تحقیق به منظور شناسایی آلکالویید‌های موجود در پیاز‌های گیاه نرگس متعلق به استان گیلان در مرحله پس از گل‌دهی صورت گرفته است. روش بررسی: از پیازهای گیاه نرگس ابتدا یک عصاره اتانولی تهیه شد. این عصاره...
