...and of course, if you have, then also please submit it to the
Potyvirus Sequence Database, as advertised here: email to phil berger
(pberger at ag.uidaho.edu) or to ed rybicki (ed at micro.uct.ac.za) for
inclusion in a large and growing resource of info on potyvirus
sequence. I enclose some more relevant info below for a refresher.
The database is located on the University of Idaho Gopher and FTP
servers, and the
University of Cape Town Gopher and FTP servers. Anyone with access to
the
Internet can access the PSD. The easiest method is to simply use PC
Gopher / WinGopher for PC
compatible computers or TurboGopher for Macintosh computers. Gopher
access in Idaho is via gopher.uidaho.edu, 1/ UI Gopher
Services/Library: Electronic Publications/Potyvirus Databases; at
University of Cape Town it is via gopher.uct.ac.za, University of Cape
Town Campus
Information/Microbiology/Potyvirus Sequence Data. Both use server
port 70. For those who want to
do it the hard way, use anonymous FTP to crow.csrv.uidaho.edu
(129.101.119.223) or ucthpx.uct.ac.za
(137.158.128.1) and go to /pub/data wherein you will find a directory
called potyvirus, which
will contain the individual sequence files. You can, in either case,
FTP data files from the server
to your own computer or simply list the file and copy and paste.
Specifically how this is done
will depend on the kind of computer you are using and the specific
hardware.
Should you encounter any problems accessing or using the database,
please don't hesitate
to e-mail us at:
pberger at marvin.ag.uidaho.edu
and:
ed at micro.uct.ac.za
