A very small porcine virus with circular single-stranded DNA

TL;DR: During the search for an in vitro model of persistent virus infections the agent was studied in more detail and showed the virus to have a diameter of 17 nm, and to contain a covalently closed circular single-stranded DNA with a molecular weight of 0.58 × 106.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus: a whitefly-transmitted geminivirus with a single genomic component.

TL;DR: Effective whitefly-mediated transmission of the virus from agroinoculated plants to test plants demonstrated that the cloned molecule carries all the information needed for virus replication, systemic infection, and transfer by whiteflies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Subviral agents associated with plant single-stranded DNA viruses

TL;DR: There is a pressing need to develop a more comprehensive picture of the diversity and distribution of the disease complexes and a greater understanding of how they elicit the host response may provide useful information for their control as well as an insight into plant developmental processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geminiviruses: Genome structure and gene function

TL;DR: Fundamental differences in the genome structure and organization of the whitefly‐ and leafhopper‐transmitted viruses are recognized, as well as among those geminiviruses infecting dicotyledonous or monocotylingonous hosts.

A study of the conditions and mechanism of the diphenylamine reaction for the colorimetric estimation of deoxyribonucleic acid

TL;DR: The present study arose from the observation that a more intense colour was sometimes produced if, instead of being heated at 1000 for 10 min., the reaction mixture was allowed to stand overnight at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sedimentation studies of the size and shape of dna.

TL;DR: Analytical zone sedimentation ( Vinograd, Bruner, Kent & Weigle, 1963) is shown to be a sensitive and reliable method for detecting differences in conformation and for determining the molecular weight of homogeneous phage DNA's.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of the base composition of deoxyribonucleic acid from its buoyant density in CsCl.

TL;DR: A comprehensive study of the buoyant density of DNA as a function of composition has been made and the linear relation previously reported has been confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid from bacteriophage φX174

TL;DR: It is concluded that the DNA of bacteriophage φX174 is single-stranded, and light scattering studies indicate that this DNA is highly flexible and that its configuration is strongly dependent upon the ionic strength of the solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overlapping genes in bacteriophage phiX174.

TL;DR: Bacteriophage φX174 genes D and E are translated from the same DNA sequence but in different reading frames, leading to confusion in the translation of these genes.
