Microorganisms, 2020 Viroids are single-stranded noncoding RNA molecules of 250–400 nucleotides that cause plant diseases. One of the two families of viroids is Pospiviroidae, the members of which replicate in the nuclei of host cells.

A Novel, Precise and High-Throughput Technology for Viroid Detection in Cannabis (MFDetectTM)
Viruses, 2023 Hop latent viroid (HLVd) is a severe disease of cannabis, causing substantial economic losses in plant yield and crop value for growers worldwide. The best way to control the disease is early detection to limit the spread of the viroid in grow facilities.

Pathogenic microbes, the microbiome, and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) [PDF]
, 2013 The Si(111)-(3 ? 1)Li and Ag surface structures consist of Si honeycomb chains separated by channels occupied by Li or Ag atoms. The dimerization of neighboring Ag atoms results in a larger c (12 ? 2)Ag superstructure.

2019–2020 Florida Citrus Production Guide: Exocortis, Cachexia, and Other Viroids
EDIS, 2019 Exocortis and cachexia are diseases caused by viroids, which can lead to stunted growth and reduced yields in affected plants. Viroids are small, infectious circular-RNA molecules.

An Assessment of the Virome of Nigerian Vineyards
PhytoFrontiers, 2023 The virome of Nigerian vineyards was assessed via diagnostic surveys for viruses and viroids in 40 sites across six states in 2016. Leaf tissues from 360 grapevines were preserved dried under CaCl2.

A 212-nt long RNA structure in the Tobacco necrosis virus-D RNA genome is resistant to Xrn degradation [PDF]
, 2019 Plus-strand RNA viruses can accumulate viral RNA degradation products during infections. Some of these decay intermediates are generated by the cytosolic 5′-to-3′ exoribonuclease Xrn1 (mammals and yeast) or Xrn4 (plants) and are formed when the enzyme ...

, 2020 In searching for life in extraterrestrial space, it is essential to act based on an unequivocal definition of life. In the twentieth century, life was defined as cells that self-replicate, metabolize, and are open for mutations, without which genetic ...

Viroids: Survivors from the RNA World? [PDF]
, 2014 Because RNA can be a carrier of genetic information and a biocatalyst, there is a consensus that it emerged before DNA and proteins, which eventually assumed these roles and relegated RNA to intermediate functions.

Viroids: From Genotype to Phenotype Just Relying on RNA Sequence and Structural Motifs [PDF]
, 2017 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 ...

Hepatitis Delta Virus RNA Replication
Viruses, 2009 Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a distant relative of plant viroids in the animal world. Similar to plant viroids, HDV replicates its circular RNA genome using a double rolling-circle mechanism.
