Striking similarities between the nucleotide sequence and genome organization of citrus tatter leaf and apple stem grooving capilloviruses

Complete sequence of an infectious full-length cDNA clone of citrus tatter leaf capillovirus: comparative sequence analysis of capillovirus genomes

“…This value agrees with previous estimates by electrophoresis of poly(A)-tailed RNA denatured with formaldehyde (K. Ohira and others, unpublished) and coincides with the length of the ASGV genome (Yoshikawa et al, 1992). The T-terminal sequence showed 99% identity with the CTLV-L sequence reported by Yoshikawa et al (1993).…”

“…The nucleotide sequence and genome organization of the 3' terminus of CTLV-L RNA (Yoshikawa et al, 1993;Ohira et al, 1994) displayed a strong similarity to that of ASGV. In this paper we report the complete sequence and genome organization of CTLV-L, compare it with the genomes of other related viruses, and describe the production of infectious transcripts of CTLV-L from a full-length clone of the genome.…”

“…Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequences with those of a 3'-terminal cDNA clone of CTLV-L (Yoshikawa et al, 1993) shows 99.0 % similarity in ORF1 and 98.q % similarity in ORF2. Fig.…”

A single silent substitution in the genome of Apple stem grooving virus causes symptom attenuation

“…The mechanism of expression of ORF1 thus remains to be elucidated. Construction of a full-length cDNA clone, pITCL, of ASGV lily strain (formerly Citrus tatter leaf virus lily strain: Nishio et al, 1989;Yoshikawa et al, 1993;Ohira et al, 1995) that produces infectious viral RNA transcripts (ASGV-wt) in vitro has been described (Ohira et al, 1995), allowing mutagenesis of the ASGV genome.…”
