| Abstract: | Three nuclear polyhedrosis viruses isolated from larvae of the insect genus Choristoneura showed polyhedrins of 28–30,000 daltons, genome sizes of 78–82 × 106 daltons, and guanine plus cytosine contents of 47.9–49.4%. It was demonstrated by comparison of restriction endonuclease fragment patterns that two of the viruses are closely related genetically. |
