Abstract:
Using an RT-PCR specific for nuclear inclusion b (NIb) and coat protein (CP) genes of Leek yellow stripe virus (LYSV) we detected two Czech (LYSV-5CZ and LYSV-22CZ) and one Chinese (LYSV-16) isolate of LYSV in garlic plants. The RT-PCR products were cloned and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis based on deduced amino acid sequence of NIb-CP region placed the Czech isolates in the group I and the Chinese isolate in the group II of LYSV.
