Figure 1 Negative contrast electron micrograph of particles of (left) Barley yellow dwarf virus-PAV (BYDV-PAV) and (right) Pea enation mosaic virus-1 (PEMV-1), isolated by means of sucrose density gradient centrifugation and stained with uranyl acetate. The bar represents 100  nm.

Figure 2 Diagram of the genome organization and map of the translation products typical of viruses in each genus of the family Luteoviridae. Solid lines represent RNA; boxes represent ORFs; thinner boxes represent translation products; gray circles represent VPgs.

Figure 3 Phylogenetic analyses of the (a) polymerase, (b) capsid protein and (c) readthrough protein sequences of species in the family Luteoviridae. Amino acid sequences were aligned and tree constructed with CLUSTALX. Numeric values at each branch indicate the bootstrap test values for each node.
