The genus Sobemovirus, unassigned to any family, consists of viruses with single-stranded
plus-oriented single-component RNA genomes and small icosahedral particles. Currently …

One of the systems of plant defense against viral infection is RNA silencing, or RNA
interference (RNAi), in which small RNAs derived from viral genomic RNAs and/or mRNAs …

The sobemoviruses have one of the smallest of all known RNA virus genomes. ORF1
encodes P1 which plays a role in suppression of silencing and virus movement, ORFs 2a …

Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) is one of the major diseases of rice in Africa. The high
resistance of the Oryza glaberrima Tog7291 accession involves a null allele of the RYMV2 …

Ilarviruses are a relatively understudied but important group of plant RNA viruses that
includes a number of crop pathogens. Their genomes comprise three RNA segments …

We report sequencing of four historical cynosurus mottle virus (CnMoV) isolates, originating
from different hosts and locations. The CnMoV genome, ranging from 4417 to 4419 nt …

Infectious clone technology is universally applied for biological characterization and
engineering of viruses. This protocol describes procedures that implement synthetic biology …

Synthetic genomics‐driven dematerialization of genetic resources facilitates flexible
hypothesis testing and rapid product development. Biological sequences have …

Sobemoviruses encode serine-like 3C proteases (Pro) that participate in the processing and
maturation of other virus-encoded proteins. Its cis and trans activity is mediated by the …

Cymbidium chlorotic mosaic virus (CyCMV), isolated from a spring orchid (Cymbidium
goeringii), was characterized molecularly. CyCMV isometric virions comprise a single …
