Ribosomal proteins (RPs), in conjunction with rRNA, are major components of ribosomes involved in the cellular process of protein biosynthesis, known as “translation”. The viruses …
Viroids are one of the most enigmatic highly structured, circular, single‐stranded RNA phytopathogens. Although they are not known to code for any peptide, viroids induce visible …
The discovery of viroids about 45 years ago heralded a revolution in Biology: small RNAs comprising around 350 nt were found to be able to replicate autonomously—and to incite …
Abstract Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) ecotype Col-0 has plastid and mitochondrial genomes encoding over 100 proteins. Public databases (eg Araport11) have redundancy …

Viroids are single-stranded circular noncoding RNAs that infect plants. The noncoding nature indicates that viroids must harness their RNA genomes to redirect host machinery for …
Viroids are single-stranded circular noncoding RNAs that infect plants. According to the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, there are 44 viroids known to date …

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 …
Viroids are naked RNAs that do not code for any known protein and yet are able to infect plants causing severe diseases. Because of their RNA nature, many studies have focused …
