Maize chlorotic mottle virus (MCMV) combines with a potyvirus in maize lethal necrosis disease (MLND), a serious emerging disease worldwide. To inform resistance strategies, we characterized the translation initiation mechanism of MCMV. We report that MCMV RNA contains a cap-independent translation
During the summer of 2011, foliar blight was observed on buffalograss (Buchloë dactyloides (Nutt.) Engelm.) lawns in Lincoln and Waverly, Nebraska. Disease symptoms were common when buffalograss was growing above 30°C and in drought conditions. Disease symptoms began as dark brown oblong leaf spots,
In the Amazon region of northern Brazil, Panicum maximum cultivars Mombaça, Tanzânia, and Massai cause severe colic and death in horses and mules. The disease occurs in the rainy season, when sprouting pastures are grazed by equidae. In the 8 separate disease outbreaks studied, a total of 52 out of
The structure of Panicum Mosaic Virus (PMV) was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis to 2.9Å resolution. The crystals were of pseudo symmetry F23; the true crystallographic unit cell was of space group P2(1) with a=411.7Å, b=403.9Å and c=412.5Å, with β=89.7°. The asymmetric unit was two entire
BACKGROUND
Fourteen horses at a boarding stable in Virginia were diagnosed with hepatic disease and locally grown hay was implicated as the cause.
OBJECTIVE
Panicum dichotomiflorum, the predominant grass species in the hay, is hepatotoxic to horses.
METHODS
Naturally occurring cases were adult
Panicum mosaic virus (PMV), a spherical virus of diameter about 300 A, has been crystallized in a form suitable for high-resolution structural analysis. The crystals were grown from 15% PEG 400 at room temperature and could be flash-frozen directly from their mother liquor. The crystals diffracted
Twenty-four lambs grazing pastures of Panicum coloratum developed photosensitization secondary to hepatic dysfunction. Lesions were necrosis of scattered hepatocytes, obstruction of small bile ducts and bile canaliculi by small aggregates of birefringent crystals, and accumulation of birefringent
Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) has caused epidemics in recent years in many crops throughout the Mediterranean Region. Tomato, pepper, and lettuce are the crops most affected in Spain. To determine the reservoir hosts for the virus in the area, 210 samples from 95 species of plants were collected
