Abstract
Transgenic plants expressing either bean yellow mosaic potyvirus or ch imeric potyvirus coat protein (CP) were inoculated with various potyvi ruses. Antigen-coated plate, indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assa y and immunoelectron microscopy of virus purified from transgenic plan ts showed that progeny virions contained from <1% to as much as 25% tr ansgenic CP. Different levels of transcapsidation may reflect the exte nt of compatibility between transgene CP and the viral CP.
