Distribution and Detection of Cowpea Viruses Infecting Cowpea in Uganda
American Journal of Plant Sciences, 2015 Cowpea viruses are economically important diseases of cowpea in the major growing areas of Uganda and have inflicted negatively on food security, nutrition and income for many households. The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence and identity of viruses infecting cowpea in the growing districts of Uganda.

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Different BYDV‐PAV isolates exert contrasting effects on aphid fitness, including reproduction and winged production. Different BYDV‐PAV isolates have contrasting effects on aphid dispersal patterns. Aphid feeding behaviour is modulated by the presence of endosymbionts and plant viruses.

Bacteriophage P22 Virus‐Like Particles as Nanoscale Protein Scaffolds for Plant Synthetic Biology
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Advancing the utility of plant synthetic biology requires the continued development of protein engineering tools. Self‐assembling protein compartments, such as virus‐like particles (VLPs), provide versatile scaffolds for synthetic biology. However, few plant‐expressed VLPs have demonstrated broad amenability to protein engineering, restricting

Proteins synthesized in tobacco mosaic virus infected protoplasts [PDF]
, 1979 The study described here concerns the proteins, synthesized as a result of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) multiplication in tobacco protoplasts and in cowpea protoplasts. The identification of proteins involved in the TMV infection, for instance in the virus

Recent Advances in Boron Removal From Geothermal Waters: A Review
Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.This review provides a comprehensive overview of boron removal technologies from geothermal fluids and highlights the limitations of conventional treatment methods. Ion exchange, hybrid processes and membrane filtration are identified as the most dominant approaches in recent studies.
