Novel 3′ Proximal Replication Elements in Umbravirus Genomes [PDF]
The 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs) of positive-strand RNA plant viruses commonly contain elements that promote viral replication and translation. The ~700 nt 3′UTR of umbravirus pea enation mosaic virus 2 (PEMV2) contains three 3′ cap-independent ...

An Update on the Intracellular and Intercellular Trafficking of Carmoviruses [PDF]
Despite harboring the smallest genomes among plant RNA viruses, carmoviruses have emerged as an ideal model system for studying essential steps of the viral cycle including intracellular and intercellular trafficking.

Biological and Molecular Characterization of a Novel Carmovirus Isolated from Angelonia [PDF]
A new carmovirus was isolated from Angelonia plants (Angelonia angustifolia), with flower break and mild foliar symptoms, grown in the United States and Israel. The virus, for which the name Angelonia flower break virus (AnFBV) is proposed, has isometric particles, ≈30 nm in diameter.

RNA virus evasion of nonsense-mediated decay. [PDF]
Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is a host RNA control pathway that removes aberrant transcripts with long 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) due to premature termination codons (PTCs) that arise through mutation or defective splicing.

Evidence for a Premature Termination Mechanism of Subgenomic mRNA Transcription in a Carmovirus [PDF]
ABSTRACT The transcriptional mechanism utilized by turnip crinkle carmovirus to synthesize subgenomic (sg) mRNAs was investigated by analyzing viral RNAs and their associated regulatory RNA elements. In vivo analyses revealed the following: (i) that minus-strand sg RNAs are detectable in infections, (ii ...

The genomic sequence of cardamine chlorotic fleck carmovirus
The complete genomic sequence of cardamine chlorotic fleck carmovirus (CCFV) has been determined. The genome is a positive-sense ssRNA molecule 4041 nucleotides in length, and has 47 to 64% sequence identity with turnip crinkle, carnation mottle and melon necrotic spot carmoviruses.

First Report of Hibiscus Chlorotic Ringspot Carmovirus in Tuvalu
In September 1997, plants of Hibiscus manihot (locally called nambele) were observed on Vaitupu Island, Tuvalu, exhibiting an angular leaf mosaic and chlorosis that was not always clearly discernible. Electron microscopy of negatively stained sap from affected leaves revealed the presence of numerous isometric virus particles 28 nm in diameter.
