The N-Terminal Domain of PMTV TGB1 Movement Protein Is Required for Nucleolar Localization, Microtubule Association, and Long-Distance Movement

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2010
The triple-gene-block (TGB)1 protein of Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) was fused to fluorescent proteins and expressed in epidermal cells of Nicotiana benthamiana under the control of the 35S promoter.

Seasonal Dynamics of the Gut Microbiome in Urban Feral Pigeons Are Associated With Environmental Conditions, Not With Diet Shifts

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using feral pigeons in urban environments, we show that microbiome diversity and composition vary seasonally despite stable diet composition. ABSTRACT Gut microbiomes play a crucial role in host physiology and seasonal adaptation. While seasonal shifts in avian gut microbiota are often attributed to seasonal diet variation, environmental factors may be

Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles: New Hype or Hope to Explain Reproductive Host–Microbiota Interactions

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid advances in microbiome research are transforming our understanding of human health and disease, with growing focus on the female reproductive tract as a critical but understudied niche. Evidence for a local microbiome largely derives from bacterial nucleic acid detection; however, the biological relevance of these signals remains debated,

POLYCLONAL ANTIBODIES TO DETECT THE CP-RT PROTEIN OF Potato Mop-Top VIRUS ANTICUERPOS POLICLONALES PARA LA DETECCIÓN DE LA PROTEÍNA CP-RT DEL Potato Mop-Top VIRUS

Revista Facultad Nacional de Agronomía Medellín, 2012
. Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) causes an important re-emerging disease in potato crops in Colombia due to the increased incidence of its protozoan vector Spongospora subterranea f.sp. subterranea (Sss), the causing agent of Powdery scab disease.

Recent Advances in Biology, Epidemiology and Host Resistance to Potato Powdery Scab

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
This review highlights recent advances in understanding powdery scab and potato resistance, providing new perspectives for developing durable and integrated strategies to manage the disease. ABSTRACT Powdery scab of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) is caused by the soil‐borne protist Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (Sss).

A naturally occurring deleted form of RNA 2 of Potato mop-top virus

Journal of General Virology, 1999
A spontaneous deletion in RNA 2 of Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) was identified by RT–PCR. The deletion occurred reproducibly during manual passage of two isolates of PMTV and during fungal inoculation of plants with viruliferous soil. The borders of the deletion were conserved in all instances and sequence analyses showed that a contiguous segment of ...

An Evaluation of a Molecular Point‐of‐Care Testing System Designed for Early Diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infections

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 8, April 2026.
On the basis of RT‐qPCR results, 549 oropharyngeal swabs were classified into four groups: MP‐positive (n = 109), MP‐negative (n = 160), RSV‐positive (n = 122), and RSV‐negative (n = 158). Using these as the reference standard, we evaluated a molecular point‐of‐care testing (mPOCT) system (EasyNAT) for simultaneous MP and RSV detection.

Detection of potato mop-top virus capsid readthrough protein in virus particles.

Journal of General Virology, 1997
Potato mop-top furovirus (PMTV) RNA 3 encodes the 20 kDa coat protein and a larger readthrough protein of 67 kDa. The readthrough protein is expressed by suppression of the amber stop codon which terminates the coat protein gene. A 21 kDa C-terminal fragment of the readthrough protein was doned, fused to glutathione S-transferase and expressed in E ...

Isolation of Extracellular Vesicles From Gram‐Negative Bacteria: A Solid Medium‐Based Method Analysis

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by gram‐negative bacteria have gained increased scientific interest over the last years due to a growing understanding of their roles in pathogenesis and biotechnological potential. However, isolating such nanoparticles is technically challenging. Here, we evaluated a rapid and reproducible protocol for EV
