Detection and genome deep sequencing of begomovirus associated with cassava mosaic disease spread to Thailand

Cassava mosaic disease caused by Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV) was a major constraint of cassava planting in Thailand, and caused serious damages to cassava production and industry. To identify the causal viruses by PCR were time-consuming to get full-length nucleotide sequences of two DNA segments. This research aims to use next-generation sequencing by Illumina 150PE platform, to elucidate the complete genome of SLCMV infecting cassava in Thailand.
