The purpose of the present invention is to determine the nucleotide
sequence of the full-length genomic RNA of papaya leaf-distortion mosaic
virus. The present invention provides the full-length genomic RNA of
papaya leaf-distortion mosaic virus, a method for diagnosing infection
with papaya leaf-distortion mosaic virus using the full-length genomic
RNA, a method for producing a papaya leaf-distortion mosaic
virus-resistant plant, and a method for producing a foreign protein in a
plant body.
