R. Revathi et D. Lalithakumari, ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MITOCHONDRIAL GENOME OF VENTURIA-INAEQUALIS (WILD AND BAYCOR-IN-VITRO-RESISTANT MUTANTS), Zeitschrift fur Pflanzenkrankheiten und Pflanzenschutz, 100(5), 1993, pp. 482-487
A method for the isolation and analysis of mtDNA of wild and various B
aycor-resistant mutants of Venturia inaequalis was described. Restrict
ion digestion of mtDNA exhibited typical banding patterns in wild and
mutants. The restriction profile of the wild strain was quite differen
t from that of the mutant strains and the molecular mass also differed
. The approximate molecular mass of the mtDNA of the wild strain was 3
4.8 kb and that of its mutants was 43.9 kb (adapted) and 42.6 kb (EMS)
.
