Plant 4/1 protein: potential player in intracellular, cell-to-cell and long-distance signaling [PDF]
Originally isolated as a result of its ability to interact with the movement protein of Tomato spotted wilt virus in a yeast two-hybrid system, the 4/1 protein is proving to be an excellent tool for studying intracellular protein trafficking and ...

Viroids: From Genotype to Phenotype Just Relying on RNA Sequence and Structural Motifs [PDF]
As a consequence of two unique physical properties, small size and circularity, viroid RNAs do not code for proteins and thus depend on RNA sequence/structural motifs for interacting with host proteins that mediate their invasion, replication, spread ...

Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) causes systemic infection in plant hosts. There are many studies on viroid-host plant interactions, but they have predominantly focused on the aboveground part of the plant. Here, we investigated transcriptomic profile

To examine the role of RNA silencing in plant defenses against viroids, a Dicer-like 2 and 4 (DCL2&4)–double knockdown transgenic tomato plant line, 72E, was created.

Viroids are small, non-protein-coding RNAs which can induce disease symptoms in a variety of plant species. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the natural host of Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) where infection results in stunting, distortion of leaves

Rolling-circle replication of viroids, viroid-like satellite RNAs and hepatitis delta virus: variations on a theme [PDF]
Viroids and viroid-like satellite RNAs from plants, and the human hepatitis delta virus (HDV) RNA share some properties that include small size, circularity and replication through a rolling-circle mechanism.

Detektion des Kartoffelspindelknollen Viroids mit Hilfe der Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification [PDF]
PSTV ist ein hoch infektiöses Viroid, das in Kartoffeln verkleinerte und spindelähnliche Knollen verursacht. Um Ernteverlusten vorzubeugen, ist eine Detektion in frühen Infektionsstadien von großer Bedeutung.

Potato spindle tuber viroid as Inducer of RNA Silencing in Infected Tomato
Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd), an RNA plant pathogen encoding no known proteins, induces systemic symptoms on tomato plants. We report detection of small RNAs of approximately 25 nucleotides with sequence specificity to PSTVd in infected plants: an

Insights Into Potato Spindle Tuber Viroid Quasi-Species From Infection to Disease
Viroids are non-coding RNA plant pathogens that are characterized by their possession of a high mutation level. Although the sequence heterogeneity in viroid infected plants is well understood, shifts in viroid population dynamics due to mutations over ...

Evolutionary Constraints to Viroid Evolution [PDF]
We suggest that viroids are trapped into adaptive peaks as the result of adaptive constraints. The first one is imposed by the necessity to fold into packed structures to escape from RNA silencing.
