Resistance to Bean Common Mosaic Virus Conferred by the bc-u Gene Does Not Affect Replication or Systemic Spread of the Virus in Common Bean but Ameliorates the Strain-Specific Systemic Necrosis

Resistance to bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) in common bean is governed by four strain-specific, recessive (bc-u, bc-1, bc-2, and bc-3) and one strain non-specific, dominant (I) genes. BCMV exists as a complex of strains defined biologically based on host range and on their mole...
