development using nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) and 5-bromo4-chloro-3-indodyl phosphate (BCIP) as substrates (Sambrook
and Russell, 2001). The identities of the samples are indicated
on top of each lane. Lane AYVTV-CP, E. coli expressed CP of
AYVTV (15 ng) as a positive control. The position of AYVTV-CP
is indicated on the right.
In conclusion, the simplified procedure reduces the time
required for the construction of infectious clones of
geminiviruses. The need to select single-cut restriction
enzymes and to verify the orientation of the inserts is
eliminated. By appropriately modifying the conditions of
restriction digestion, the procedure can be applied to studies
of viruses with circular genomes.
