Analysis of the <i>Spodoptera frugiperda</i> Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus Genome by Restriction Endonucleases and Electron Microscopy

Abstract

Restriction endonuclease analysis was used to differentiate between four strains of Spodoptera frugiperda nuclear polyhedrosis virus from different geographical areas. In addition, partial denaturation was performed, and a partial denaturation map was constructed for the Ohio strain of this virus.
