The 1,035 nucleotides at the 3'end of the I strain of pea mosaic potyvirus (PMV-I) genomic RNA, encoding the coat protein, have been cloned and sequenced. A comparison of the derived coat protein sequence with those of the bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) strains, CS, S, D and GDD, indicates that PMV-I is a strain of BYMV. Sequence comparisons and hybridisation studies using the 3'-noncoding region support this classification. The nucleotide and protein sequence data also suggest that PMV-I and BYMV-CS form one subset of BYMV strains while the other three strains form another.

Successful plant growth requires plants to minimize harm from antagonists and maximize benefit from mutualists. However, these outcomes may be difficult to achieve simultaneously, since plant defenses activated in response to antagonists can compromise mutualism function, and plant resources allocated to defense may trade off with resources allocated to managing mutualists. Here, we investigate how antagonist attack affects plant ability to manage mutualists with sanctions, in which a plant rewards cooperative mutualists and/or punishes uncooperative mutualists.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a commonly grown forage crop in Oregon and California harvested on 350,000 and 480,000 acres, respectively, in 2023 (USDA-NASS 2023). Forage alfalfa is grown as a perennial crop for about four years in the same field and each season, the crop is cut 3-4 times for hay production.

In India, plants from the non-cultivated, horticultural, and agricultural categories are commonly infected with various begomoviruses, most of which produce yellow mosaic, bright yellow mosaic, or curling symptoms on leaves. In this study, the complete genome of a new bipartite begomovirus causing yellow mosaic disease (YMD) in butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea L.) was characterized using rolling-circle amplification followed by restriction digestion, cloning, and sequencing to obtain the full-length DNA-A (2727 nt) and DNA-B (2648 nt) sequences.

Viral proteins with intrinsic disorder, such as the p26 movement protein from Pea enation mosaic virus 2 (PEMV2), can phase separate and form condensates that aid specific stages of virus replication. However, little is known about the impact of viral condensate formation on essential cellular processes, like translation. In this study, we performed mass spectrometry on affinity-purified p26 condensates and found an enrichment of RNA-binding proteins involved in translation and ribosome biogenesis.

Halide perovskites (HPs) are crystalline solids that feature a unique softness, absent in conventional semiconducting materials. In recent years, this softness has been pivotal to many properties in these materials, in both static and dynamic regimes. Here, we focus on the two-dimensional (2D) (PEA)PbI crystal.
