Three new cases of true mosaic trisomy 17 (MT17) were diagnosed in amniotic fluid cells. Postnatal chromosome analysis from lymphocytes did not confirm the trisomic cell line, and follow-up studies showed normal psycho-motor development of the children, in one case up to the age of 4 1/2 years. We suggest that there are similarities between MT17 and MT20, in which the majority of pregnancies result in deliveries of healthy babies.

Sida mottle virus (SiMoV) and Sida micrantha mosaic virus (SiMMV) are major Brazilian begomoviruses (). However, the range of DNA-A identity of isolates of these viruses (81-100%) is not in agreement with the current criteria for species demarcation (<91%). To clarify this putative classification problem, we performed a comprehensive set of molecular analyses with all 53 publicly available isolates (with complete DNA-A genomes) designated as either SiMoV or SiMMV (including novel isolates obtained herein from nationwide metagenomics-based studies).

Mustard is a commercial oilseed crop worldwide infected by a highly infectious turnip mosaic virus (TuMV). In the experimental field at ICAR-IARI, New Delhi, in 2022, a 100% incidence of TuMV infection was observed in brown, black and yellow mustard. A very low aphid population suggested the possibility of seed transmission.

Background: Mosaicism, characterized by the presence of two or more chromosomally distinct cell lines, is detected in 2% to 4% of chorionic villus samples (CVSs). In these cases, the aberration may be confined to the placenta or additionally present in the fetus. Fetal involvement may manifest as fetal malformations, while confined placental mosaicism (CPM) poses risks such as preterm birth and low birth weight.
