Ophioviruses: state of the Art

ophioviruses relationship to negative stranded RNA

introduction

History of ophioviruses

relationship between ophioviruses

genome organization sequence analysis and putative proteins

Morphology of the ophiovirus particles-in vitro stability

:tissue and coat protein

stability in different temperatures and solutions

3 uncapsited segments of RNA

protein function

function of coat protein in transmision

circular structures- a "panhandle" stucture

comparing identical 5' and 3' in RNA 1,2,3,and 4 sequences in ophioviruses

analysis of the putative RdRp

ophioviruses relationship to negative stranded RNA

RdRp protein is an RNA polymerase found in other viruses

distinct species of ophioviruses

cultivars and transgenic lines resistant to ophiovirus

resistant plants in TMMMV and progress on resistant plants of MLBVV

transgenic plants focus on protein mediated and rna mediated resistance and CP gene

looking at resistance in lettuce agaisnt MLBVV and LVaV

transgene insertion and grafting of citrus plants, unsuccessful
