Molecular detection and characterization of <i>Hop stunt viroid</i> sequence variants from naturally infected pomegranate (<i>Punica granatum </i>L.) in Tunisia

Tunisian pomegranate Hop stunt viroid (HSVd) variants are described. Dot-blot hybridization, S-Page, and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) of RNA extracts from infected tissues were carried out. Results obtained by these techniques were confirmed by cDNA sequencing. The geneti...
