Immunohistochemical localization of Cassava brown streak virus and its morphological effect on cassava leaves. [PDF]
Physiol Mol Plant Pathol, 2019 The localization of Cassava brown streak virus (CBSV) in cassava (Manihot esculenta) leaf tissues was determined and cellular morphological changes in CBSV-infected tissues were evaluated. CBSV-symptomatic leaves were screened with CBSV-specific primers using reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction.
