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]
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
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]
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.

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

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 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 ...
