Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation TCV variants carrying the CCFV coat protein ORF or a coat protein start-codon mutation (TCV-CPm) were infectious on the susceptible ecotype Col-0 of Arabidopsis.
- Observation TCV variants carrying the CCFV coat protein ORF or a coat protein start-codon mutation (TCV-CPm) were infectious on the TCV-resistant ecotype Di-0 of Arabidopsis.
- Observation The authors suggest that the resistance of Di-0 to TCV is specific to TCV.
- Mechanism The authors suggest that the resistance of Di-0 to TCV may involve an RNA degradation activity.
- Observation TCV was restricted to small areas around the initial infection sites on inoculated leaves of Di-0 plants, as shown by whole plant in situ hybridization.
- Observation TCV in Col-0 plants moved long-distance to metabolic sink tissues (young leaves and roots) at a rate that differed from the other viruses tested.
- Observation CCFV moved long-distance to metabolic sink tissues (young leaves and roots) at a rate that differed from the other viruses tested.
- Mechanism Symptom modulation by sat-RNA C in Arabidopsis is mediated by the viral coat protein.
- Mechanism Inhibition of virus long distance movement is involved in sat-RNA C-mediated symptom attenuation of TCV-CPm.
- Mechanism Inhibition of helper virus replication is not important for sat-RNA C-mediated symptom attenuation.
- Observation Symptom attenuation mediated by sat-RNA C is localized.
- Mechanism Symptom attenuation mediated by sat-RNA C does not involve the major plant defense pathway.
