Assessment of genetic diversity for cotton leaf curl virus (CLCuD), fiber quality and some morphological traits using different statistical procedures in Gossypium hirsutum L
Cotton leaf curl virus disease (CLCuD) is one of the major factors limiting cotton production in Pakistan. For the assessment of genetic diversity one hundred cotton genotypes was evaluated for CLCuD tolerance, fiber ...
Amplicon-based RNA interference targeting V2 gene of cotton leaf curl kokhran virus- burewala strain can provide resistance in transgenic cotton plants
The conserved coat or V2 gene of begomoviruses is responsible for viral movement in the plant cells. RNAi technology was used to silence V2 gene for resistance against these viruses in transgenic plants. The transformation ...
First Report of Chilli leaf curl virus and Associated Alpha- and Beta-satellite DNAs Infecting Nettle Weed (Urtica dioica) in Pakistan
Weeds act as reservoirs of begomoviruses and ‘‘mixing vessels’’ leading to emergence of new viruses that may infect crops once a susceptible host plant is introduced into an agro-ecological system. Owing to the importance ...
