Abstract

A library of recombinant cDNA bacterial clones was established and plasmids carrying sequences near the 3′ terminus of the viral RNA which include the coat protein gene were identified. The complete nucleotide sequence of the PStV CP gene and 3′ untranslated region of the Indonesian blotch isolate was determined in both directions from 3′ terminal cDNA clones and subclones. The PStV CP gene is 861 nucleotides long and can potentially encode a protein of 287 amino acids of Mr 31 500 Da. Explants and tissue culture conditions for providing suitable target material for gene transfer and plant regeneration were identified and conditions established for obtaining plants from de-embryonated cotyledons and embryonic leaflets of 2 groundnut cultivars
