Lineup of virus inoculated Nicotiana benthamiana plants. Depicted are Nicotiana benthamiana plants harboring single or multi-virus infections of TuYV, CMoV, and/or Sigma. (A) Asymptomatic virus infections; little to no difference in plant stature was observed between the different virus treatments represented. (B) Symptomatic virus infections; notable stunting can be seen in plants infected with 2 or more viruses, relative to a healthy control. A similar, albeit more severe, effect was observed for plants harboring co-infections including ST9, whereas this effect was not observed in plants harboring co-infections including Gamma. Labels above each plant picture indicate the virus infection treatment. Photos were taken 3 wpi.
