Project name: Glycine max

Description: Soybeans (Glycine max) from several locations in Kay and Noble Counties of Oklahoma USA exhibited symptoms of viral infection, but did not react positively in tests for known viral pathogens of soybean. To discover what viruses, if any, were present, total RNA from diseased plant leaves was subjected to deep sequencing with and without Ribozero treatment. A strain of Tobacco streak virus was discovered, sufficiently distinct from other TSV strains to have been missed in initial screening.

Data type: raw sequence reads

Sample scope: Multiisolate

Relevance: Agricultural
