    Notes: Abstract. We have used a new method for binning minisatellite alleles (semi-automated allele aggregation) and report the extent of population diversity detectable by eleven minisatellite loci in 2689 individuals from 19 human populations distributed widely throughout the world. Whereas population relationships are consistent with those found in other studies, our estimate of genetic differentiation (Fst) between populations is less than 8%, which is lower than comparative estimates of between 10%–15% obtained by using other sources of polymorphism data. We infer that mutational processes are involved in reducing Fst estimates from minisatellite data because, first, the lowest Fst estimates are found at loci showing autocorrelated frequencies among alleles of similar size and, second, Fst declines with heterozygosity but by more than predicted assuming simple models of mutation. These conclusions are consistent with the view that minisatellites are subject to selective or mutational constraints in addition to those expected under simple stepwise mutation models.

    Notes: Summary.  The 5′ and 3′ terminal sequences of the plus strand of Fiji disease fijivirus (FDV) segments 2, 3, 9 and 10 possess the conserved terminal sequences, 5′AAGUUUUU… . .CAGCAGAUGUC 3′. The 5′ sequence is identical to that of maize rough dwarf fijivirus (MRDV) and rice black-streaked dwarf fijivirus (RBSDV), whereas the FDV 3′ sequence shares the consensus, CAGCNNNNGUC, with MRDV and RBSDV. The FDV terminal sequences, and the amino acid sequences from FDV segment 9, are more closely related to those from MRDV and RBSDV than to those from oat sterile dwarf fijivirus (OSDV) and Nilaparvata lugens reovirus (NLRV; a putative Fijivirus).

    Notes: Summary We have sequenced the NIb coding region of sugarcane mosaic potyvirus strain SC (SCMV-SC) and eight field isolates of SCMV from Australia. This region comprised 1563 nucleotides and encoded a putative protein of 521 amino acids containing the consensus motif GDD. The protease cleavage sites between the NIa/NIb and the NIb/coat protein were found to be Q/C and Q/A, respectively. The SCMV sequences were most similar to sorghum mosaic potyvirus with identities of 70% and 78% at the nucleotide and amino acid levels, respectively. When the sequences were compared to each other, there was a maximum of 3.3% variation between isolates at the nucleotide level and a maximum of 0.8% at the amino acid level. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences indicated the field isolates were grouped according to their geographical location. The SCMV sequence with most homology to all other isolates has been selected to generate constructs for replicase-mediated resistance.

    Banana bunchy top virus DNA-2 to 6 are monocistronic (1999)

    Notes: Summary.  Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) DNA-3 to 6 have each previously been shown to contain one large open reading frame in the virion sense, whereas no large ORF had been identified in BBTV DNA-2. RNAs transcribed from the BBTV genome were mapped using northern hybridisation and 3′ RACE. One mRNA was transcribed from each of BBTV DNA-2 to 6 and four of these mRNAs mapped to the ORFs previously identified in BBTV DNA-3 to 6. The mRNA of BBTV DNA-2 was transcribed from a virion sense ORF probably using a TATA box sequence different to that in BBTV DNA-1, and DNA-3 to 6. This ORF encoded a 10 kDa protein of unknown function. The 3′ untranslated region of the five mRNAs varied from 25 nucleotides (BBTV DNA-6) to 167 nucleotides (BBTV DNA-4) and each contained putative polyadenylation signals with associated GT rich sequences together with a possible termination signal (C/T/A)TGTAA conserved in all five mRNAs.

    Notes: Summary. Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) has a multicomponent genome consisting of at least six circular single-stranded DNAs each with a single large open reading frame (ORF) in the virion sense. A protein of approximately 20 kDa has been associated with purified virions and is assumed to be the viral coat protein. The N-terminus of this protein was sequenced and compared to the predicted amino acid sequence of the large ORF of BBTV DNA-1 to 6. This comparison indicated that the ORF of BBTV DNA-3, which potentially encodes a protein of 19.3 kDa, was the coat protein gene of BBTV. The ORF sequence of BBTV DNA-3 was cloned into a prokaryotic expression vector, pMAL-c2, and the resulting maltose binding-BBTV coat protein fusion product was purified and used for the production of polyclonal antiserum in a rabbit. The resultant antiserum was able to detect the presence of BBTV in infected leaf tissue confirming that the large virion sense ORF of BBTV DNA-3 encodes the viral coat protein.

    Notes: Summary.  We have sequenced the coat protein (CP) coding region of 11 field isolates of SCMV from Australia, USA and South Africa. The differences between the nucleotide sequences of the isolates was 0.2 to 4.1% and the encoded amino acid sequences differed by 0.0 to 3.5%. Phylogenetic analysis of the CP coding sequences of the SCMV isolates and the related potyviruses SCMV-MDB, JGMV, SrMV, MDMV-A and PVY showed that the SCMV isolates formed a tightly clustered group, with SCMV-MDB forming a separate branch. This indicated that (i) the SCMV isolates are of one strain (SCMV-A) and not geographically distinct species and (ii) SCMV-MDB is clearly distinct, and may represent another potyvirus species.

    Characterization and expression of the coat protein-coding region of banana bract mosaic potyvirus, development of diagnostic assays and detection of the virus in banana plants from five countries in southeast Asia (1999)

    Notes: Summary.  We have sequenced the entire coat protein (CP)-coding region and 5′ 162 nucleotides of the 3′ untranslated region (UTR) of nine different isolates of banana bract mosaic virus (BBrMV) from five different countries. Further, we have sequenced the 3′ 621 nucleotides of the NIb-coding region of a Philippines isolate. This is the first report of BBrMV in Thailand, Vietnam and Western Samoa. When the sequences of the CP-coding region and 3′ UTR were compared to each other, variability of between 0.3% and 5.6%, and 0.3% and 4.3%, was observed at the nucleotide and amino acid levels, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of the BBrMV isolates did not reveal any relationship between the geographic location of the isolates. The BBrMV CP was expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein and the purified recombinant protein was used to produce a high titre BBrMV-specific polyclonal antiserum. This antiserum was used to develop a F(ab′)2 indirect double antibody sandwich ELISA and compared with immuno-capture PCR (IC-PCR) and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) assays for BBrMV detection. RT-PCR was shown to be the most sensitive test followed by ELISA and IC-PCR.

    Expression, purification, and use as an antigen of recombinant sugarcane mosaic virus coat protein (1995)

    Notes: Summary A high titre (1:10000) antiserum was raised in a rabbit against the coat protein of sugarcane mosaic potyvirus (SCMV), by injecting a preparation of recombinant coat protein purified from a fusion protein expressed inE. coli. The fusion protein consisted of theMalE maltose binding protein (MBP) and the viral coat protein separated by the protease factor Xa cleavage site. The fusion protein was encoded by the plasmid pMAL-cCPM, which was constructed by cloning a modified coat protein gene to the 3′ end of the MBP/factor Xa coding region. The coat protein gene was modified by site-directed mutagenesis so that the ATG start codon in the original construct was replaced by the codon AGC, deleting theNcoI restriction site (C/CATGG) and creating a uniqueEco47III site (AGC/GCT). Endonuclease restriction withEco47III resulted in a DNA fragment with GCT as the first three nucleotides. This triplet encodes alanine, which is the proposed N-terminal amino acid residue of the mature native coat protein. This modified coat protein coding region was ligated directly behind the nucleotide code for the amino acid recognition sequence for factor Xa. Expression was induced with IPTG and the recombinant fusion protein was extracted from the bacterial lysate by amylose resin column affinity chromatography and the two domains separated by factor Xa proteolysis. The coat protein was then purified from the maltose binding protein by ion exchange chromatography in buffer containing 6 M urea. A highly purified sample which contained 150 µg of both full-length and truncated coat proteins, was recovered from a litre of bacterial broth. The antiserum reacted with native coat protein in SCMV-infected sugarcane, and with recombinant coat proteins expressed inE. coli and sugarcane protoplasts with little or no cross-reaction with sugarcane proteins.
