Abstract

Comparison of the predicted coat protein amino acid sequence of the 'sweet cherry' strain of plum pox potyvirus (PPV-SwC) with the corresponding regions of several other PPV strains indicated that the main differences are in the N-terminal region. Polyclonal antibodies were produced against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the 1-14 sequence of the N-terminal region of PPV-SwC coat protein. They specifically detected PPV-SwC in different immunochemical tests.
