Genome Sequence of Banana Streak MY Virus from the Pacific Ocean Island of Tonga
Banana streak disease is caused by a variety of banana-infecting badnaviruses. A genome of the episomal form of a banana streak MY virus was recovered from an infected banana plant sampled on Vava'u Island, Tonga, and shares >98% pairwise identity with the six other genomes available in public databases.
متن کاملProspects for breeding agronomically superior Musa with resistance or tolerance to BSV
The genetic improvement of banana and plantain has focused on breeding for resistance to black sigatoka. This has been quite successful, but the distribution of improved hybrids has been impeded by the outbreak of Banana streak virus (BSV). Integration of viral sequences in Musa genomes make it diffi cult to apply commonly accepted principles for host-plant resistance. The short-term strategy o...
متن کاملThe acyclic nucleoside phosphonate analogues, adefovir, tenofovir and PMEDAP, efficiently eliminate banana streak virus from banana (Musa spp.).
We report that the anti-retroviral and anti-hepadnavirus molecules, adefovir, tenofovir and 9-(2-phosphonomethoxyethyl)-2,6-diaminopurine (PMEDAP), efficiently eradicate the episomal form of Banana streak virus (BSV) from banana plants. Up to 90% of plants regenerated from BSV-infected highly proliferating meristems were virus free following a 6-month treatment period with 10 microg/ml (a non-p...
متن کاملDevelopment of Real-Time PCR for the Rapid Detection of Episomal Banana streak virus (BSV)
Banana streak virus (BSV) is the causal agent of viral leaf streak of banana and plantains and is the most widely distributed virus of these crops (5). The virus is a member of the plant pararetroviruses genus Badnavirus (16), with nonenveloped bacilliform particles (episomal virus) containing a 7.4-kb circular double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genome that is replicated by reverse transcription (9). ...
متن کاملMolecular assessment of genetic identity and genetic stability in banana cultivars (Musa spp.) from China using ISSR markers
A study was carried out to identify of different cultivars and monitor somaclonal variations of banana during rapid mass micropropgation using Inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) marker. DNA templates from 30 Banana cultivars were evaluated using 45 primers. Genetic diversity is analyzed by one statistical procedure: hierarchical classification. Total number of bands varied between the various...
