Abstract:

The article considers the methods of defining and finding the distribution of composite numbers CN, prime numbers PN, twins of prime numbers Tw and twins of composite numbers TwCN that do not have divisors 2 and 3 in the set of natural numbers - ℕ based on a set of numbers like Θ = {6∙κ ± 1, κ ∈ ℕ}, which is a semigroup in relation to multiplication. There has been proposed a method of obtaining primes by using their ordinal numbers in the set of primes and vice versa, as well as a new algorithm for searching and distributing primes based on a closedness of the elements of the set Θ. It has been shown that a composite number can be presented in the form of products (6x ± 1) (6y ± 1), where x, y ℕ - are positive integer solutions of one of the 4 Diophantine equations: . It has been proved that if there is a parameter λ of prime twins, then none of Diophantine equations P (x, y, λ) = 0 has positive integer solutions. There has been found the new distribution law of prime numbers π(x) in the segment [1 ÷ N]. Any even number is comparable to one of the numbers i.e. . According to the above remainders m, even numbers are divided into 3 types, each type having its own way of representing sums of 2 elements of the set Θ. For any even number in a segment [1 ÷ ν], where ν = (ζ−m) / 6, , there is a parameter of an even number; it is proved that there is always a pair of numbers that are elements of the united sets of parameters of prime twins and parameters of transition numbers , i.e. numbers of the form with the same λ, if the form is a prime number, then the form is a composite number, and vice versa.

Abstract:

Visual search is often guided by top–down attentional templates that specify target-defining features. But search can also occur at the level of object categories. We measured the N2pc component, a marker of attentional target selection, in two visual search experiments where targets were defined either categorically (e.g., any letter) or at the item level (e.g., the letter C) by a prime stimulus. In both experiments, an N2pc was elicited during category search, in both familiar and novel contexts (Experiment 1) and with symbolic primes (Experiment 2), indicating that, even when targets are only defined at the category level, they are selected at early sensory-perceptual stages. However, the N2pc emerged earlier and was larger during item-based search compared with category-based search, demonstrating the superiority of attentional guidance by item-specific templates. We discuss the implications of these findings for attentional control and category learning.

ABSTRACT All cultivated Thermotogales are thermophiles or hyperthermophiles. However, optimized 16S rRNA primers successfully amplified Thermotogales sequences from temperate hydrocarbon-impacted sites, mesothermic oil reservoirs, and enrichment cultures incubated at <46°C. We conclude that distinct Thermotogales lineages commonly inhabit low-temperature environments but may be underreported, likely due to “universal” 16S rRNA gene primer bias.

Abstract:

Since Telser (1960), there is a well-established argument that a competitive market will not provide service due to freeriding. We show that with search frictions, the market may well provide service if the cost of doing so is not too large. Any market equilibrium with service provision has two or more firms providing service, implying overprovision of service as the social optimum mandates at most one service provider. Firms that provide service and those that do not can coexist, where consumers direct their search to service providers first to obtain service, and to nonservice providers later to enjoy lower prices.

Abstract:

The identical agent, identical good Bertrand game is associated with prices at marginal cost — the Bertrand Paradox. If consumers make occasional mistakes I show that the standard Bertrand game gives rise to positive profits and prices above marginal cost. Some firms charge low prices to capture the bulk of the sales while others charge high prices selling to mistaken consumers. Furthermore, with free entry the Diamond Paradox arises; a full measure of the firms choose the monopoly price. As a result, the Diamond Paradox arises in an environment with zero search costs by replacing searching costs with searching errors.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTShotgun metagenomic sequencing does not depend on gene-targeted primers or PCR amplification; thus, it is not affected by primer bias or chimeras. However, searching rRNA genes from large shotgun Illumina data sets is computationally expensive, and no approach exists for unsupervised community analysis of small-subunit (SSU) rRNA gene fragments retrieved from shotgun data. We present a pipeline, SSUsearch, to achieve the faster identification of short-subunit rRNA gene fragments and enabled unsupervised community analysis with shotgun data. It also includes classification and copy number correction, and the output can be used by traditional amplicon analysis platforms. Shotgun metagenome data using this pipeline yielded higher diversity estimates than amplicon data but retained the grouping of samples in ordination analyses. We applied this pipeline to soil samples with paired shotgun and amplicon data and confirmed bias againstVerrucomicrobiain a commonly used V6-V8 primer set, as well as discovering likely bias againstActinobacteriaand forVerrucomicrobiain a commonly used V4 primer set. This pipeline can utilize all variable regions in SSU rRNA and also can be applied to large-subunit (LSU) rRNA genes for confirmation of community structure. The pipeline can scale to handle large amounts of soil metagenomic data (5 Gb memory and 5 central processing unit hours to process 38 Gb [1 lane] of trimmed Illumina HiSeq2500 data) and is freely available athttps://github.com/dib-lab/SSUsearchunder a BSD license.

Abstract:

Abstract Motivation Fine mapping becomes a routine trial following quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping studies to shrink the size of genomic segments underlying causal variants. The availability of whole genome sequences can facilitate the development of high marker density and predict gene content in genomic segments of interest. Correlations between genetic and physical positions of these loci require handling of different experimental genetic data types, and ultimately converting them into positioning markers using a routine and efficient tool. Results To convert classical QTL markers into KASP assay primers, KASPspoon simulates a PCR by running an approximate-match searching analysis on user-entered primer pairs against the provided sequences, and then comparing in vitro and in silico PCR results. KASPspoon reports amplimers close to or adjoining genes/SNPs/simple sequence repeats and those that are shared between in vitro and in silico PCR results to select the most appropriate amplimers for gene discovery. KASPspoon compares physical and genetic maps, and reports the primer set genome coverage for PCR-walking. KASPspoon could be used to design KASP assay primers to convert QTL acquired by classical molecular markers into high-throughput genotyping assays and to provide major SNP resource for the dissection of genotypic and phenotypic variation. In addition to human-readable output files, KASPspoon creates Circos configurations that illustrate different in silico and in vitro results.

Full text

Abstract:

Angle estimation methods in two-dimensional co-prime planar arrays have been discussed mainly based on peak searching and sparse recovery. Peak searching methods suffer from heavy computational complexity and sparse recovery methods face some problems in selecting the regularization parameters. In this paper, we propose an improved trilinear model-based method for angle estimation for co-prime planar arrays in the view of trilinear decomposition, namely parallel factor analysis. Due to the principle of trilinear decomposition, our method does not require peak searching and can conduct auto-pairing easily, which can reduce the computational loads and avoid parameter selection problems. Furthermore, we exploit the virtual array concept of the whole co-prime planar array through the cross-correlation matrix obtained from the received signal data and present a matrix reconstruction method using the Khatri–Rao product to tackle the matrix rank deficiency problem in the virtual array condition. The simulation results show that our proposed method can not only achieve high estimation accuracy with low complexity compared to other similar approaches, but also utilize limited sensor number to implement the angle estimation tasks.

Abstract:

Antibiotic resistance can be caused by the presence of several genes encoding antibiotic resistance found in certain bacteria. S. aureus bacteria contained blaZ (97.4%), mecA (42.3%) and tetM genes (20.2%). Bacillus sp. contained blm (87.2%), tetL (44%) and tetB genes (2.9%). E. coli bacteria contained tem (80.9%)dan shv genes (14.28%). Clostridium spp. Bacteria contained cat gene (36%), as well as S. pyogens contained ermT (36.5%). Specific primers made in silico based on bioinformatics were then analyzed by PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) and electrophoresis. The purpose of this study was to detect the presence of blaZ, mecA, tetM, blM, tetL, tetB, tem, shv, cat, and ermT genes. The research began by searching for the nucleotide sequences for the ermT, cat, tetB, and blaZ genes through the Primer 3Plus program and analyzed using OligoAnalyzer 3.1. In vitro detection was carried out by extracting DNA and then amplification using PCR, and analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results of the analysis of the primer criteria for the ermT gene and the blaZ gene at the optimum Tm 55 C, cat gene and the tetB gene at the optimum Tm 60 C have met all the primer criteria. The results obtained are mecA gene (533 bp), tetM gene (366 bp), blm gene (1107 bp), tetL gene (267 bp), tetB gene (186 bp), tem gene (1073 bp), cat gene (164 bp), the ermT gene (202 bp) has been detected successfully, while blaZ and shv have not been detected successfully.

Abstract:

This paper shows that in a multilateral bargaining setting where the sellers compete á la Bertrand, a range of prices that includes the monopoly price and 0 are compatible with equilibrium, even in the limit where the reputational concerns and frictions vanish. In particular, the incentive of committing to a specific demand, the opportunity of building reputation about inflexibility, and the anxiety of preserving their reputation can tilt players' bargaining power in such a way that being deemed as a tough bargainer is bad for the competing players, and thus, price undercutting is not optimal for the sellers.

In this work, PCR primers P8 and P9 were used for amplification of a 320 bp long PCR product specific to the nisin gene. The PCR product was labelled with digoxigenine during amplification and used as a DNA probe for the screening of homologous DNA sequences in 7 Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis strains from the Culture Collection of Dairy Microorganisms (CCDM). Dot blot hybridisation and hybridisation of colonies were used for DNA/DNA hybridisation. It was shown that 6 tested strains of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis have genes encoding nisin. One strain had probably a defective gene encoding nisin.

The high mutation rate of the influenza A virus hemagglutinin segment poses great challenges to its long-term effective testing and subtyping. Our conserved sequence searching method achieves high-specificity conserved sequences on H1–H9 subtypes. In addition, PCR experiments show that primers based on conserved sequences can be used in influenza A virus HA subtyping. Conserved sequence-based primers are expected to be long-term, effective subtyping tools for influenza A virus HA.

Abstract:

Retailers often use price promotions to discriminate between consumers who can shift purchases over time and those who cannot. Retailers consistently tend to charge lower prices than necessary, pricing defensively to prevent loyal customers from cherry picking, or shifting to competitors. Knowledge about cherry picking behaviour will enable retailers to obtain a higher share of disposable income from even price-sensitive shoppers, while at the same time charging higher prices. Recent studies indicate that effective cherry picking entails saving costs through price searching over time, price searching across stores, or both. This study examines the relationship between cherry picking and the distance that consumers travel to do grocery shopping. Interviews were conducted at ten different retail outlets over three days, and the results show that there is a highly significant correlation between cherry picking and the distance that consumers travel to do grocery shopping.These results should help retailers to benefit from cherry picking by taking a proactive approach to store switching and store location, two of the main influences on cherry picking behaviour.

Abstract:

AbstractOrobanche cumana Wallr. is a holoparasitic plant for only sunflower, hence it is called as sunflower broomrape. Yield loss created by O. cumana which is generally 50 % can reach to 100 %. In this study, it was planned to perform molecular characterization of O. cumana germplasm as nine locations of Thrace region obtained from Trakya Agricultural Research Institute by using Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) markers, widely used in plant breeding programs, in Competitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) assay which is a fluorescent tagged allele specific PCR method based, economic, reliable and easily repeatable genotyping technology. Databases and literature were scanned to spot variations on O. cumana genome which is not known clearly. So far, four SSR (Simple Sequence Repeat) marker (Ocum-197, Ocum-006, Ocum-023 and Ocum-151) regions showing polymorphic pattern were used for searching possible SNPs. Primer pairs were designed for amplification of the regions possibly having SNPs and PCR amplifications with these primer pairs were performed and 1 candidate deletion was detected on the amplicon which was amplified by Ocum-197 SSR marker. Following, the deletion was converted to KASP primers and KASP assay was performed. The deletion marker, Del-197, has grouped the samples from nine locations in the resulting allelic discrimination plot and infestation was performed according to this grouping, As a conclusion, Del-197 is considered as a selective marker for the ability to rapidly assay allelic variation at DNA markers for O. cumana populations that have effects on infestation results were evaluated as races, F, G, H and I in Thrace region.

Abstract:

Composite Higgs models have the potential to provide a solution to the hierarchy problem and a dynamical explanation for the generation of the Higgs potential. They can be tested at the LHC as the new sector which underlies electroweak symmetry breaking must become strong in the TeV regime, which implies additional bound states beyond the Higgs. In this paper, we first discuss prospects and search strategies for top partners (and other quark partners) in the strongly coupled sector, which we study in an effective field theory setup. In the second part of the proceedings, we go beyond the effective field theory approach. We discuss potential UV embeddings for composite Higgs models which contain a Higgs as well as top partners. We show that in all of these models, additional pseudo-Nambu–Goldstone bosons beyond the Higgs are present. In particular, all of the models contain a pseudoscalar which couples to the Standard Model gauge fields through Wess–Zumino–Witten terms, providing a prime candidate for a di-boson (including a di-photon) resonance. The models also contain colored pNGBs which can be searched for at the LHC.

Abstract:

Similar to other markets in which deviations from Jevons' “law of one price” is the norm rather than the exception, the retail wine market in the United States is characterized by large price dispersions. Drawing on a large sample of retail prices from wine-searcher.com we find an average per-wine coefficient of variation of 23 percent. Some of this is due to differential market conditions, especially state regulations. Our evidence suggests that dispersion also depends positively on price levels, after controlling for consumer, market, and state heterogeneity.

Abstract:

The clinical use of potent, well-tolerated, broad-spectrum antibiotics has been paralleled by the development of resistance in bacteria, and the prevalence of highly resistant bacteria in some intensive care units is despairingly commonplace. The intensive care community faces the realistic prospect of untreatable nosocomial infections and should be searching for new approaches to diagnose and manage resistant bacteria. In this review, we discuss some of the relevant underlying biology, with a particular focus on genetic transfer vehicles and the relationship of selection pressure to their movements. It is an attempt to demystify the relevant language and concepts for the anaesthetist and intensivist, to explain some of the reasons for the emergence of resistance in bacteria, and to provide a contextual basis for discussion of management approaches such as selective decontamination and antibiotic cycling.

The latest developments in research, both laboratory and field, on the pest, its natural enemies and their implications for integrated control ofH. hampeiare summarized, with a particular focus on the situation in The Americas. Lately, the global coffee industry has changed radically; it has suffered a long cycle of lowest-ever world market prices caused by overproduction and technological change. At the same time, the advent of sustainable certification schemes has had a major impact on the industry. The role of integrated pest management and biological control ofH. hampeiin an era of changes in the coffee industry is discussed.

Abstract:

This research is studying the process of organization communication in an advertising agency at ADA Indonesia and ADA Singapore. This research is done using a qualitative descriptive approach with ethnography method. The data that has been used was prim and secondary data. Prim’s data was one that contains interviews with the resource of information. Hence secondary data was one that contains data that resource from books and other resources. The Theories that have been used were Organizational theory, Organizational Culture theory, Climate of Organization, and Organization Communication. To gather the data, interviews, observation, bibliography study and online searching technique was used. The outcome from this research shows that the communication process that was used now is right and comfortable to apply on company’s daily organizational life. It also shows that even though the company is organizational, it didn’t imply any seniority concept or cultures that could corrupt the communication flow that has been functioning up until now on the company. Penelitian ini membahas mengenai proses komunikasi organisasi di dalam biro iklan di ADA Indonesia dan ADA Singapura. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan pendekatan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif dengan metode penelitian etnografi. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini terdiri dari data primer dan sekunder.

Abstract:

AbstractIn 1853 William Parker Snow (who had earlier participated in an expedition to search for the missing Franklin expedition in what is now the Canadian Arctic) decided to sink the money he had made in Melbourne during the Australian gold rush into a private expedition to search for Franklin, starting from Melbourne. In the southern autumn of 1853, he bought a 16-ton cutter, The Thomas, and, despite the handicaps of exorbitant prices and shortage of labour, fitted the vessel out for an Arctic expedition during the continuing frenzy of the gold rush. After calling at Sydney, The Thomas started north but encountered a series of violent winter gales that damaged her severely and forced Snow to seek shelter in the mouth of the Clarence River in northeastern New South Wales. By the time the storm damage had been repaired, all but two of Snow's men had deserted. Still in hopes of trying again, Snow sailed his cutter back south to Sydney and there finally abandoned this, one of the more bizarre episodes of the Franklin search.

Abstract:

The development of the coal mining subsector companies have decreased, especially in stock prices. The companies performance is the main point for investors to invest in the middle of a less good level influenced by various factors, including due to debt and profit. Financial statements are a proof of the companies performance. Searching for these factors is done by analyzing financial ratios related to debt and profits. The purpose of this research is analyze whether DER and EPS have a partial and simultaneous effect on stock prices. The population are all coal mining subsector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) in the period 2014-2019 with a sample of 10 companies. This research is quantitative with purposive sampling technique. The data used are financial statements published by the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) and then processed using SPSS for Windows 25. The results of the research get that partially DER has no effect on stock prices while EPS has an effect on stock prices. Simultaneously the DER and EPS have effects together on stock prices. Based on the results of DER and EPS with regression models, the variables have a strong influence on stock prices with determination were 37%. The biggest influence was contributed is EPS by 31% and then DER by 6%.

Abstract:

In this paper, a forecasting system of electric price is proposed to predict the short-term electric prices for avoiding the risk due to the electricity price volatility. Based on the Back-propagation Neural Network(BPN) and Orthogonal Experimental Design(OED), a New Artificial Neural Network Approach(NANNA) is constructed in the searching process. The data cluster, including Locational Marginal Price(LMP), system load, temperature, line-flow, are first collected and embedded in the Excel Database. In order to get a better solution, the OED is used to automatically regulate the parameters during the NANNA training process. Linking the NANNA and Excel database, the NANNA retrieved the input data from Excel Database to perform and analyze the efficiency and accuracy of the predicting system until the forecasting system is convergent. Simulation results will provide the participants to obtain the maximal profits and raise its ability of market’s competition in a price volatility environment.

Abstract:

Electronic database searching opens new avenues for newspaper research. One strategy for evaluating quality of newspapers is to compare newspapers for spelling, grammar and style errors. An electronic database search was utilized to evaluate the editing precision of 58 news organizations and their ratings were compared to their Pulitzer Prize records. A non-linear relationship was found. Winning a small number of Pulitzers correlates positively with editing precision, but the effect diminishes rapidly with additional Pulitzer Prizes.

Abstract:

ObjectivesTo investigate the trend in the launch price of new drugs for five common health conditions.DesignCross-sectional study using data on new drugs launched in the UK between 1981 and 2015 for hypertension, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, schizophrenia and colorectal cancer.Data and sourcesAll drugs marketed in the UK between 1981 and 2015 (inclusive), and licensed specifically for the treatment of one of the five chosen conditions were included in the study. Newly launched medicines and their launch prices were identified by hand-searching all editions of the British National Formulary in addition to searching the websites of relevant regulatory agencies (European Medicines Agency and Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency). The launch price in UK pounds for a 28-day supply of each medicine at a typical or usual maintenance dose was adjusted for the effects of general inflation using the gross domestic product deflator series.Results104 drugs were included in our study with a mean inflation-adjusted 28-day launch price of £288 (SD £678). The launch price of new drugs varied significantly across the five conditions, with drugs for hypertension having the lowest mean price (£27) and drugs for colorectal cancer having the highest mean price (£1590) (p<0.001). There were large increases in launch prices across the study period, but the magnitude and pattern was markedly different between therapeutic areas. Biological drugs represented 13.5% of all included drugs and had a significantly higher launch price than non- biological drugs (£1233 vs £141, p<0.001). 22.1% of included drugs were first-of-kind and had a significantly higher launch price than follow-on drugs (£768 vs £151) (p<0.0001).ConclusionDrugs prices continue to increase across different therapeutic areas. This has some association with novelty, but, it is not clear if this increase in price is associated with medical benefits.

Abstract:

This article deals with one of the important parts of applying chaos theory to financial and capital markets – namely searching for long memory effects in time series of financial instruments. Source data are daily closing prices of Central Europe stock market indices – Bratislava stock index (SAX), Budapest stock index (BUX), Prague stock index (PX) and Vienna stock index (ATX) – in the period from January 1998 to September 2007. For analysed data R/S analysis is used to calculate the Hurst exponent. On the basis of the Hurst exponent is characterized formation and behaviour of analysed financial time series. Computed Hurst exponent is also statistical compared with his expected value signalling independent process. It is also operated with 5-day returns (i.e. weekly returns) for the purposes of comparison and identification nonperiodic cycles.

Kesimpulan: Prosedur celah bibir inkomplit bilateral disertai rinoplasti primer dengan teknik modifikasi Mulliken memberikan hasil yang baik. Introduction: Cleft lip with or without cleft palate is the most common disorder of craniofacial development. This disorder could be occurred unilaterally or bilaterally, and sometimes were also accompanied by other type of congenital disorders. Bilateral cleft lip potentially could change the face structure and shape, causing interference in eating, speech, dental development, and aesthetics. Cleft lip always occurred with nasal deformity, even in incomplete cleft lip. Mulliken is a pioneer in performing a repair in bilateral cleft lip and primary rhinoplasty altogether at the same time. Purpose: To find out the result of surgery procedure in bilateral incomplete cleft lip and primary rhinoplasty using Mulliken modification technique. Case report: A bilateral incomplete cleft lip case in a 7 months old boy and managed by Mulliken modification technique. Method: Evidence based literature study of bilateral incomplete cleft lip and primary rhinoplasty with Mulliken modification technique through Cochrane library, Pubmed Medline, and hand searching. Result: The growth of nasal tip projection, nasal width, collumellar length, upper lip height, cutaneus lip height, and vermilion mucous height were close to normal size. Conclusion: Procedure of bilateral incomplete cleft lip and primary rhinoplasty repair using Mulliken modification technique delivered a good outcome.

Abstract:

Background:: In the internet era, there is a prime need to access and manage the huge volume of multimedia data in an effective manner. Shot is a sequence of frames captured by a single camera in an uninterrupted space and time. Shot detection is suitable for various applications such that video browsing, video indexing, content based video retrieval and video summarization. Objective:: To detect the shot transitions in the video within a short duration. It compares the visual features of frames like correlation, histogram and texture features only in the candidate region frames instead of comparing the full frames in the video file. Methods: This paper analyses candidate frames by searching the values of frame features which matches with the abrupt detector followed by the correct cut transition frame with in the datacube recursively until it detects the correct transition frame. If they are matched with the gradual detector, then it will give the gradual transition ranges, otherwise the algorithm will compare the frames within the next datacube to detect shot transition. Results:: The total average detection rates of all transitions computed in the proposed Data-cube Search Based Shot Boundary Detection technique are 92.06 for precision, 96.92 for recall and 93.94 for f1 measure and the maximum accurate detection rate. Conclusion:: Proposed method for shot transitions uses correlation value for searching procedure with less computation time than the existing methods which compares every single frame and uses multi features such as color, edge, motion and texture features in wavelet domain.

Abstract:

Analysis of the rise in prices for consumer goods is a state’s priority task. The state assumes the obligation to regulate pricing in all spheres of consumption. First of all, the prices for essential commodities to which agricultural products belong are analyzed. The article shows the changes in prices for consumer goods of agricultural products (sugar) during a pandemic. The analysis of forecasting prices for sugar and its impact on the development of its production is carried out. The construction of the forecast model was based on extrapolation. The structure of a forecast model for price changes was based on the analysis of the time series of the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) class. This model consists of an autoregressive model and a moving average model. A forecast of the volume of domestic sugar transportation by rail has been completed. The algorithms implemented this model for searching for initial approximations and optimal parameters for the predictive model. The Hirotsugu Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) was used to select the best model. The algorithms were implemented in the Python programming language. The quality check of the description was performed with a predictive model of actual data. An economic interpretation of the rise in sugar prices and proof of the forecast’s truth obtained from a financial point of view were carried out.

Abstract:

Browne's Blechum (Blechum pyramidatum) is a common weed found in fields and waste grounds in the Philippines. A disease was observed causing begomovirus-like yellow/chlorotic leaf veins and shortened internodes of Browne's Blechum plants on the island of Luzon, Philippines; disease incidence ranged from 10 to 50% in fields in 2012. Samples were collected from two plants with symptoms from each of Laguna and Quezon provinces and one plant without symptoms from Laguna Province. All four samples from plants with symptoms tested positive for begomovirus by PCR using primer pair PAL1v1978B/PAR1c715H (2), but the symptomless plant sample did not. However, no virus DNA-B component was detected in any of the samples using either general detection primer pair DNABLC1/DNABLV2 or DNABLC2/DNABLV2 (1). Using abutting primers AFPH12W1-R2F (TCTGGATCCATTGTTGAACGAGT) and AFPH12W1-R2R (CCGGGATCCCACATTGTTAAACA), a complete DNA-A component sequence was obtained for a Laguna isolate (GenBank Accession No. KF446659) and for a Quezon isolate (KF446660). The Laguna and Quezon isolate sequences were 2,764 and 2,756 nucleotides, respectively, and shared 90.6% nucleotide sequence identity. Both had six open reading frames (ORFs)—two in the virus sense (V1 and V2) and four in the complementary sense (C1 to C4)—and the geminivirus conserved sequence (TAATATTAC). Based on BLASTn searching of GenBank and sequence analysis using MEGALIGN (DNASTAR), both isolates should be considered as a new begomovirus (tentatively named Blechum yellow vein virus, BlYVV) since their DNA-A sequences share less than 89% nucleotide identity with any other begomovirus. Both DNA sequences had the highest nucleotide identity (84.8 to 87.6%) with Papaya leaf curl Guangdong virus isolates (AJ558122, AY650283, FJ495184, FJ869907, and JN703795). To our knowledge, this is the first report of a previously unidentified begomovirus associated with yellow vein disease of this species. References: (1) S. K. Green et al. Plant Dis. 85:1286, 2001.
