Cellular Microbiology, 2008 Viroids are small, circular RNA pathogens, which infect several crop plants and can cause diseases of economic importance. They do not code for proteins but they contain a number of RNA structural elements, which interact with factors of the host. The resulting set of sophisticated and specific interactions enables them to use the host machinery for ...

On the Trail of Viroids a Return to Phytosanitary Awareness [PDF]
PathogensViroids are subviral plant pathogens composed of non-coding, small, circular, single-stranded RNAs that parasitize the transcriptional machinery of their host cells.

Tropical Plant Pathology, 2009 Os viroides são os menores fitopatógenos conhecidos. Constituídos por uma molécula de RNA de fita simples, circular, que não é encapsidada e não codifica proteínas, são capazes de se replicar de maneira autônoma nas células do hospedeiro.

Engineering Viroid Resistance [PDF]
Viruses, 2015 Viroids are non-encapsidated, non-coding, circular, single-stranded RNAs (ssRNAs). They are classified into the families Pospiviroidae and Avsunviroidae, whose members replicate in the nucleus and chloroplast of plant cells, respectively.

Viroid Replication, Movement, and the Host Factors Involved [PDF]
MicroorganismsViroids represent distinctive infectious agents composed solely of short, single-stranded, circular RNA molecules. In contrast to viruses, viroids do not encode for proteins and lack a protective coat protein.
