premii Ad Astra

Asociația Ad Astra a anunțat câștigătorii Premiilor Ad Astra 2022: http://premii.ad-astra.ro/. Proiectul și-a propus identificarea și popularizarea modelelor de succes, a rezultatelor excepționale ale cercetătorilor români din țară și din afara ei.

Asociatia Ad Astra a cercetatorilor romani lanseaza BAZA DE DATE A CERCETATORILOR ROMANI DIN DIASPORA. Scopul acestei baze de date este aceea de a stimula colaborarea dintre cercetatorii romani de peste hotare dar si cu cercetatorii din Romania. Cercetatorii care doresc sa fie nominalizati in aceasta baza de date sunt rugati sa trimita un email la cristian.presura@gmail.com

Rezumat:

The serological and genetic variability of Plum pox
virus (PPV) isolates from transgenic plum trees expressing
the PPV coat protein gene and conventional plums
was analyzed. PPV isolates were characterized serologically
by TAS-ELISA using PPV-D and PPV-M specific
monoclonal antibodies and by molecular typing across
three genomic regions as well as RFLP analysis of the 3’
terminus of the CP gene. PCR products spanning the
(Cter)CP and (Cter)NIb-(Nter)CP regions were sequenced.
Sequence information revealed no significant
difference between serological and molecular features of
PPV isolates from transgenic and conventional plums
that were growing together in experimental orchards for
6-8 years. These results show that transgenic plums do
not promote the emergence of new PPV variants under
field conditions.
