Plant Virus Replication Cycles
  • In contrast to animal viruses and bacteriophages, plant viruses infect cells by {{c1::mechanisms that do not involve specific membrane receptors}}
  • Entry of plant viruses into host cells usually require {{c1::mechanical transmission}}, nonspecific access through physical damage to tissues
  • Most plant viruses enter by one of three routes:
    1. Vector (aphid) {{c1::feed off plants}}
    2. Contact with {{c1::damage tissue}}
    3. Transmission through {{c1::seed}}
