Similar nucleic acid sequences

In this study we consider DNA sequences as mathematical strings. Total and reduced alignments between two DNA sequences have been considered in the literature to measure their similarity. Results for explicit representations of some alignments have been already obtained.

Evolutionary variations let us define a set of similar nucleic acid sequences as a family if these different molecules execute a common function. Capturing their sequence variation by using e. g. position specific scoring matrices significantly improves sensitivity of detection tools.

Banana bract mosaic disease (BBrMD) is one of the most important viral diseases of banana which leads to a yield reduction. We have identified banana bract mosaic virus (BBrMV) in banana plants growing in the regions of southern India based on symptomatology, sequence homology, and Serodiagnostic assays. The viral sequence encoding the coat protein was specifically amplified by RT-PCR (Reverse Transcriptase – Polymerase chain reaction) using specific primers bordering the Coat Protein (CP) gene.
