Prevalence and distribution of Potato mop‐top virus in Scotland [PDF]

Plant Pathology, 2011
This study was undertaken to determine the current occurrence in Scottish seed potato crops of Potato mop‐top virus (PMTV), which is transmitted by Spongospora subterranea and causes spraing (brown arcs and lines) in the flesh of potato tubers ...

Transgenic resistance to pathogens and pests [PDF]

, 2004
Pathogens and pests constantly threaten plants and cause crop losses of significant economic importance for agricultural production worldwide. One way to reduce the damage caused by pathogens and pests is the development of new, resistant cultivars ...

Conservation of coat protein sequence among isolates of potato mop-top virus from Scotland and Peru

, 1996
Coat protein gene sequences of eight isolates of potato mop- top virus from the Peruvian Andes and of three isolates from Scotland were compared. Despite wide geographical separation, there was little sequence variation among all isolates.

Transformation of Nicotiana benthamiana with the Potato Mop-Top Virus Coat Protein Gene Produces a Novel Resistance Phenotype Mediated by the Coat Protein

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998
Transformed lines of Nicotiana benthamiana expressing a translatable transgene (CPtrans) encoding the coat protein (CP) gene of potato mop-top virus (PMTV) differed considerably in steady-state levels of transgene RNA transcript and CP that were ...

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,

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.

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).

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
