“…Recently, the construction of directly infectious cDNA clones of brome mosaic virus RNAs 1, 2 and 3 (Mori et al, 1991), beet necrotic yellow vein virus RNAs 3 and 4 (Commandeur et al, 1991), pea early browning virus RNAs 1 and 2 (MacFarlane et al, 1992), tomato mosaic virus RNA (Weber et al, 1992) and plum pox virus RNA (Maiss et al, 1992) have been reported. These constructs make use of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter sequence linked to the 5' ends of the viral cDNAs to generate infectious transcripts in the plant.…”
