Abstract: | Summary Two hitherto undescribed viruses were isolated from naturally-infected white clover plants.One induced both cytoplasmic and intranuclear inclusions, and the other caused cytoplasmic inclusions of a new type, which we have called Corner inclusion bodies.All three kinds of inclusion were found in the same cells.Vital observations showed that the two kinds of cytoplasmic inclusion bodies developed principally from the plastids.The intranuclear inclusions were shown to develop from the nucleoli.Cytochemical tests showed that the cytoplasmic inclusions contained protein and ribonucleic acid.On the basis of these findings, the possibility of virus synthesis in plastids and nucleoli is discussed. |
