Symptom recovery in Tomato ringspot virus infected Nicotiana benthamiana plants : investigation into the role of plant RNA silencing mechanisms

Symptom recovery in virus-infected plants is characterized by the emergence of asymptomatic leaves after a systemic symptomatic phase of infection and has been linked with the clearance of the viral RNA due to the induction of RNA silencing. However, the recovery of Tomato ringspot virus (ToRSV)-in...
