Subject field(s)

  • Plant Biology
  • Plant Diseases
DEF

Plant viruses of the reovirus and rhabdovirus groups which have an outer lipid-protein membrane surrounding the protein shell of the virus.

OBS

Some enveloped viruses appear to associate with coated pits in the plasma membrane, to be taken into coated vesicles by endocytosis and then translocated via large, uncoated vesicles into lysosomes. Fusion of viral envelope with lysosomal membrane then releases the nucleocapsid directly into the cytoplasm without exposure of the content of it to the lysosome.
