Estimating the term…
The present invention is directed to recombinant plant viral nucleic acids and to hosts infected thereby. The recombinant plant viral nucleic acids comprise a native plant viral subgenomic promoter, at least one non-native plant viral subgenomic promoter, a plant viral coat protein coding sequence, and optionally, at least one non-native nucleic acid sequence to be transcribed or expressed in the infected host plant. The recombinant plant viral nucleic acids are stable, capable of systemic infection and capable of stable transcription or expression in the plant host of the non-native nucleic acid sequences.
A recombinant plant viral nucleic acid derived from a plus sense, single stranded RNA plant virus that naturally has a subgenomic promoter, the recombinant plant viral nucleic acid comprising:
A process for systemically transcribing a nucleic acid sequence in a host plant comprising:
A DNA vector designated as pTB2 having American Type Culture Collection accession number 75280.
A DNA vector designated as pTBU5 having American Type Culture Collection accession number 75281.
