Abstract
A serological relationship between rice dwarf (RDV) and rice gall dwarf (RGDV) viruses was found with antiserum against virus dissociated with sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) by the immune blotting technique. The antiserum against SDS-dissociated RDV, which recognized all peptide components of RDV, cross-reacted with one peptide component of RGDV on immune blotting, while antiserum to intact RDV did not react with RGDV. This immune blotting technique with antibody against SDS-dissociated virus could be a highly sensitive method for studying distant serological relationships among viruses.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
