The genus Benyvirus (Benyvidiae) includes the most important and widespread sugar beet viruses. In particular, Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) is worldwide distributed and causes an abnormal rootlet proliferation known as rhizomania, whereas Beet soil-borne mosaic virus (BSBMV) is present only in the United States of America. These two viruses have the same genomic organization, infect the same host range and are both transmitted by Polymyxa betae. However, no chimeric forms have been described in nature so far. Thus, we investigate the behavior of artificial viral chimeras.

Abstract
The genus Benyvirus (Benyvidiae) includes the most important and widespread sugar beet viruses. In particular, Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) is worldwide distributed and causes an abnormal rootlet proliferation known as rhizomania, whereas Beet soil-borne mosaic virus (BSBMV) is present only in the United States of America. These two viruses have the same genomic organization, infect the same host range and are both transmitted by Polymyxa betae. However, no chimeric forms have been described in nature so far. Thus, we investigate the behavior of artificial viral chimeras.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
