Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect The AL2 mutation, unlike the AL1 mutation, allowed viral DNA replication in leaf discs.
- Intervention effect Mutations to the AR1 and AL3 ORFs gave infectious clones with a considerable delay in attenuated symptoms compared with wild-type infections.
- Intervention effect Mutating the AL3 ORF dramatically reduced viral DNA replication in whole plants and leaf discs.
- Intervention effect Mutations to the AL4 ORF gave clones as infectious in N. benthamiana as the wild-type clones.
- Intervention effect Mutations to the AL4 ORF gave clones as infectious in potato as the wild-type clones.
- Observation Mixtures of both genomic components were infectious for potato plants after biolistic inoculation.
- Observation The wild-type DNA A component alone was capable of limited independent replication and spread in N. benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Both excised DNA A and B components were required for DNA replication and symptom development in plants inoculated biolistically.
