Integrity of Nonviral Fragments in Recombinant Tomato bushy stunt virus and Defective Interfering RNA Is Influenced by Silencing and the Type of Inserts

Enhanced competitiveness of tomato bushy stunt virus defective interfering RNAs by segment duplication or nucleotide insertion.

We have analyzed atypical tomato bushy stunt virus defective interfering (DI) RNA species which accumulated during a passage series in protoplasts. We present a rationale for the order of appearance of these molecules and show, using competition assays, that either segment duplication or single nucleotide insertion can enhance DI RNA competitiveness. Possible mechanisms for the introduction of ...

Origin and Evolution of Defective Interfering RNAs of Tomato Bushy Stunt Virus

Host-specific generation and maintenance of Tomato bushy stunt virus defective interfering RNAs.

The accumulation of Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) defective interfering RNAs (DIs) has been observed in several species of plants, but the involvement of host-specific processes and the functional role of DIs are still poorly understood. In this study, the accumulation of DIs was compared after several passages of TBSV through Nicotiana benthamiana and pepper (Capsicum annuum). As anticipated...

On the rigidity of RNA in tomato bushy stunt virus.

The motional state of RNA in tomato bushy stunt rirlls, both in thr crystalline st,attx and in solution, has been invrstigat,ed IuGng 31P nuclear magnetic resonance methods. It, has been found that t’hr RNA is highly immobile in tho nativ Crus. and it is suggested that t,he lack of a high-resolution X-ray diffraction patt,crn for either the RNB or the N-terminal repions of the pro&n coat molcrn...
