“Cross-protection”, a nearly 100 years-old virological term, is suggested to be changed to
“close protection”. Evidence for the need of such change has accumulated over the past six …

Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) occurs in most citrus producing regions of the world, and it is the
most serious viral pathogen of citrus. With the recent establishment of the brown citrus aphid …

We examined the population structure and genetic variation of four genomic regions within
and between 30 Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) isolates from Spain and California. Our analyses …

Abstract The Closterovirus, Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) is an aphid-borne RNA virus that is the
causal agent of important worldwide economic losses in citrus. Biological and molecular …

Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) exists in field isolates as a complex of virus isolates. This complex
may contain both mild and severe CTV. Using single and multiple aphid transmissions …

The geographic incidence and molecular variation of three whitefly-borne closteroviruses
(lettuce infectious yellows virus [LIYV], cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus [CYSDV], and …

Genetic variability of citrus tristeza virus (CTV) was studied using the haplotypes detected by
single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis of genesp18andp20in six virus …

Comparison of a sampling of complementary DNA (cDNA) sequences from the Florida citrus
tristeza virus (CTV) isolates T3 and T30 to the sequence of the genome of the Israeli isolate …

Nucleotide sequence and hybridization data using cDNA clones from the non-conserved
regions of the genomes of the Israeli CTV isolate VT and the Florida isolates T3, T30, and …

A multiplex real-time PCR assay was developed to detect and quantify the Citrus tristeza
virus (CTV) genotypic mixture present in infected plants. CTV isolate FS627, a complex …
