- Abstract
The affinities of Ullucus mild mottle virus (UMMV) purified by a modified procedure. were examined by immunoblotting and probing with antisera to five distinct tobamoviruses. RNA. isolated from purified virus, was used for <em>in vitro</em> protein translation in a wheat gent system and the products examined by denaturing polyacryamide gel electrophoresis. The results of these investigations, together with a study of the double-stranded RNAs associated with infection, confirm that UMMV is a distinct tobamovirus which has close affinities with tobacco mosaic, tomato mosaic and cucumber green motile tobamoviruses and more distant relationships with ribgrass mosaic and odontoglossum ringspot tobamoviruses.
