Fig. 6From: The 2b protein and C-terminal region of the 2a protein indispensably facilitate systemic movement of cucumber mosaic virus in radish with supplementary function by either the 3a or the coat proteinAccumulation of CMV in radish (cv. Tokinashi). a Detection of CMV in inoculated cotyledons at 10 dpi and b in upper, non-inoculated leaves and root at 21 dpi by tissue immunoblotting using antiserum against CMV-Y CP. Cotyledons of 7-day-old seedlings were mechanically inoculated with point-mutated RNA3s in the MP and CP or both, combined with Y RNA1 and D8 RNA2. Numbers at top represent individual test plants; numbers on left indicate te leaf positions from the top of the plants. M, mock-inoculated plants. Asterisks indicate dead or senesced leaves that could not be analyzedBack to article page
