Other claims from this paper (19)
- Observation Spherical virus particles of approximately 29 to 31 nm were isolated from symptomatic Calibrachoa plants.
- Intervention effect The virus was mechanically transmitted to Chenopodium amaranticolor.
- Intervention effect The virus was mechanically transmitted to C. capitatum.
- Intervention effect The virus was mechanically transmitted to C. quinoa.
- Intervention effect The virus was mechanically transmitted to Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Intervention effect The virus was mechanically transmitted to N. clevelandii.
- Observation Green peach aphid did not transmit the virus.
- Observation Sweet potato whitefly did not transmit the virus.
- Observation Silverleaf whitefly did not transmit the virus.
- Observation Greenhouse whitefly did not transmit the virus.
- Observation Virions contained a single single-stranded RNA species of approximately 4.0 kb.
- Observation Virions contained a single capsid protein of approximately 41 kDa.
- Observation The dsRNA pattern showed a major band of about 4.0 kbp.
- Observation Three minor dsRNAs were approximately 3.1, 1.6 and 1.3 kbp.
- Observation Virus-infected plants reacted with homologous polyclonal antiserum in indirect ELISA.
- Observation The virus genome contained a conserved RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase motif associated with Carmovirus.
- Observation The virus genome shared 94% identity with Carnation mottle virus.
- Observation Calibrachoa virus differed from CarMV in serology and host range.
- Mechanism The authors concluded a previously undescribed carmovirus causes Calibrachoa disease and proposed the name Calibrachoa mottle virus.
