Figure 5

Analysis of recombination for betasatellites isolated from okra. The bars represent the sequences of betasatellites with the likely origins of sequences shown in color, as indicated in the box on the right. Only interspecific recombinations, that is recombination between distinct betasatellites (as defined by Briddon et al. [6]), are shown. The betasatellite acronyms given are Bhendi yellow vein betasatellite (BYVB), Croton yellow vein mosaic betasatellite (CroYVMB), Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMB), Okra leaf curl betasatellite (OLCuB) and Tobacco leaf curl betasatellite (TbLCB). Sequence of indeterminate origin is indicated as "unknown". The box below at the bottom of the diagram indicates the approximate position of the βC1 gene, the A-rich region and the satellite conserved region (SCR), features that are common to all betasatellites.
