Article

A naturally occurring deletion mutant of figwort mosaic virus (caulimovirus) is generated by RNA splicing.

Virology - 1 Sept 1991

Scholthof H B, Wu F C, Richins R D, Shepherd R J

Abstract excerpt

A naturally occurring deletion mutant is observed in plants infected with figwort mosaic virus (FMV), a caulimovirus. The encapsidated mutant genome is formed spontaneously in association with two different strains of FMV in four host plant species. The mutant also appears when cloned wild-type viral DNA is used as the inoculum. The deletion mutant alone is not infectious and it appears unable to replicate after...
