AUTHOR=Hohn Thomas TITLE=RNA based viral silencing suppression in plant pararetroviruses JOURNAL=Frontiers in Plant Science VOLUME=Volume 6 - 2015 YEAR=2015 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/plant-science/articles/10.3389/fpls.2015.00398 DOI=10.3389/fpls.2015.00398 ISSN=1664-462X ABSTRACT=The 600 nucleotide long leader of Cauliflower Mosaic Virus pregenomic RNA and that of other plant pararteroviruses is also separately transcribed. It is then converted to a double strand giving rise to a huge set of siRNAs, which suppress silencing.
