- Title
Biology and interactions of two distinct monopartite begomoviruses and betasatellites associated with radish leaf curl disease in India.
- Abstract
The article discusses a study which identified and characterized two distinct monopartite begomoviruses and associated beta satellite DNA causing leaf curl disease of radish (Raphanus sativus) in India. As reported, leaf curl disease of field grown radish plants was noticed in Varanasi and Pataudi region of northern India. The study suggests that the exchange of betasatellites with other begomoviruses would create a new disease complex posing a serious threat to crop production.
