title: Inhibitory effects of 9-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)adenine and 3-(adenin-9-yl)-2-hydroxypropanoic acid 2-methylpropylester on potato virus X replication.
abstract: 9-(2,3-Dihydroxypropyl)adenine (DHPA) and 3-(adenin-9-yl)-2-hydroxypropanoic acid 2-methylpropylester (AHPA-MP)) markedly inhibit the replication of potato virus X (PVX). The latter compound inhibits virus replication more effectively at the lower concentration range. In synchronized virus-infected leaf-disks, the time-response course of inhibition by both compounds is almost identical, and similar to that of cycloheximide.
