Identification of Viruses and Viroids by Next-Generation Sequencing and Homology-Dependent and Homology-Independent Algorithms

open access: yesAnnual Review of Phytopathology, 2015
A fast, accurate, and full indexing of viruses and viroids in a sample for the inspection and quarantine services and disease management is desirable but was unrealistic until recently.

Engineering Viroid Resistance [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 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.

Viroids-First—A Model for Life on Earth, Mars and Exoplanets

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
The search for extraterrestrial life, recently fueled by the discovery of exoplanets, requires defined biosignatures. Current biomarkers include those of extremophilic organisms, typically archaea.

Viroids, Satellite RNAs and Prions: Folding of Nucleic Acids and Misfolding of Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesViruses
Theodor (“Ted”) Otto Diener (* 28 February 1921 in Zürich, Switzerland; † 28 March 2023 in Beltsville, MD, USA) pioneered research on viroids while working at the Plant Virology Laboratory, Agricultural Research Service, USDA, in Beltsville.

Molecular detection of Citrus exocortis viroid (CEVd), Citrus viroid-III (CVd-III), and Citrus viroid-IV (CVd-IV) in Palestine [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Citrus hosts various phytopathogens that have impacted productivity, including viroids. Missing data on the status of viroids in citrus in Palestine were not reported.

Viroids: Non-Coding Circular RNAs Able to Autonomously Replicate and Infect Higher Plants

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Simple Summary Viroids are the smallest infectious agents currently known. Despite consisting of a relatively small RNA molecule that does not code for any protein, viroids manage to reproduce their genomes and completely invade a host plant when they ...

Hop Stunt Viroid Expression and Host Responses in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Plant Pathol
The expression of hop stunt viroid (HSVd) in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana induces similar host responses to those observed in HSVd‐infected cucumber; thus, A. thaliana can be a valuable model for viroid–host interactions. ABSTRACT Arabidopsis thaliana serves as an appealing model for viroid research, though prior infection trials have largely failed.

Systematic Comparison of Nanopore and Illumina Sequencing for the Detection of Plant Viruses and Viroids Using Total RNA Sequencing Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
High-throughput sequencing (HTS) has become an important tool for plant virus detection and discovery. Nanopore sequencing has been rapidly developing in the recent years and offers new possibilities for fast diagnostic applications of HTS.

Incidence and Epidemiology of Citrus Viroids in Greece: Role of Host and Cultivar in Epidemiological Characteristics

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Viroids represent a threat to the citrus industry and also display an intricate matter for citrus tristeza virus (CTV) control as most of the commercial citrus rootstocks that are resistant/tolerant to CTV appear to be highly susceptible to viroid ...

Viroids [PDF]

open access: yesCellular 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 ...
