Interpretive Summary: In 2006, a new virus was isolated in
Western Kansas from the cultivar RonL. The virus was named
Triticum mosaic virus (TriMV) and analysis showed that it was a
very unique virus. The genome was sequenced, compared to other
viruses, and no other virus is like TriMV in nucleotide or amino
acid sequence. Since its discovery, TriMV has been found from
Wyoming to Texas. This study was undertaken to determine how
variable the virus is in terms of its nucleotide sequen
