Based on their specificity of recognition against a panel of 15 LMV isolates, the mAbs could be clustered in seven reactivity groups. Surface plasmon resonance analysis indicated the presence, on the LMV particles, of at least five independent recognition/ binding regions, correlating with the seven mAbs reactivity groups. The results demonstrate that LMV shows significant serological variability and shed light on the LMV epitope structure. The various mAbs should prove a new and efficient tool for LIVIV diagnostic and field epidemiology studies.2605-2610engAnalysis of the serological variability of Lettuce mosaic virus using monoclonal antibodies and surface plasmon resonance technologyArtigo10.1099/vir.0.82980-0WOS:000249226400029Acesso restrito
