Detection of Citrus yellow mosaic virus by PCR and nucleic acid spot hybridisation using non-radioactive probes in commercial citrus species
Archives of Phytopathology and Plant Protection 43 (9), 892-899
Abstract: Citrus yellow mosaic virus (CYMV) was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in leaf samples of sweet orange, Rangpurlime, Pumello pink and acid lime and also in twig bark, fruit rind, fruit juice except fruit rag of sweet orange cv. Sathgudi, where all the positive samples showed bright amplification of the 726 bp band except in fruit rind. The CYMV could be detected by the biotin labelled probe of CYMV up to 1:100 dilutions by TE and TNE extraction methods in sweet orange cv. Sathgudi as well as Rangpurlime.
