Abstract excerpt
A mutant of the WL47 satellite (WL47-sat) RNA of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), constructed in vitro, induces lethal necrosis in tomato plants when associated with either of two subgroup II strains of CMV: LS- or WL-CMV (D. E. Sleat and P. Palukaitis, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:2946-2950, 1990). The phenotype of this mutant (WLM2-sat RNA) has been examined on tomato plants, after co-inoculation with a wider...
