Michaels, T. E., Smith, T. H., Larsen, J., Beattie, A. D. and Pauls, K. P. 2006. OAC Rex common bean. Can. J. Plant Sci. 86: 733–736. OAC Rex is an upright indeterminate bush white bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivar intended for use in areas with greater than 2800 crop heat units. It has good yield potential in either wide or narrow row production. It is resistant to races 1 and 15 of bean c...

Plants infected with cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) (KIN strain) produce a mild mosaic disease on tobacco whereas infections of CMV with satellite RNA (strain Y) cause a severe yellow mosaic. Analysis of recombinant and mutant forms of satellite RNA identified a site (nucleotides 185/186) in the Y satellite RNA that affects the ability to induce the yellow mosaic in combination with CMV but not wi...

A screenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of seedling age at inoculation and cultivar on pathogenicity of the virus causing yellow mosaic disease of Commelina benghalensis L, a broad leaf weed, on cowpea. Three cowpea varieties namely Vita 5, IT84S2246D and Ife Brown were grown in pots and inoculated with sap extracted from leaves of C. benghalensis infected with yellow m...

abstract in order to detect onion yellow dwarf virus in khorasan province in iran, onion samples from major onion growing regions where collected in spring and summer 2010. to determine the distribution of the virus, samples were randomly taken from onion fields in vicinity of mashhad, chenaran, quchan, torbate heydarye, neyshabur, bardaskan, gonabad, fariman, faruj, shirvan, bojnourd and ash k...

A small amount of southern bean mosaic virus was contained in a narrow zone after density-gradient centrifugation, but in a much wider zone after centrifugation with a large amount of a second virus. Zone-spreading of a major component by non-ideal sedimentation in density-gradient centrifugation can cause zone spreading of a minor component that the major component overlaps.

Microtubules are closely associated with tubules containing virus particles in leaf cells infected with bean pod mottle virus or cowpea mosaic virus. The similar orientation and apparent continuity suggest that cores of tubules with virus particles are actually microtubules. It is suggested that microtubules may be involved in the intraand intercellular movement of viral components and in the a...
