FIG. 7

Models of complexes transmissible by aphids for caulimoviruses and potyviruses. Retention of caulimovirus or potyvirus particles in the alimentary canal of M. persicae occurs at the level of a putative receptor (possibly distinct for each of the two groups of viruses) via a bridge consisting of proteins P2 and P3 for caulimoviruses and of the single protein HC-Pro for potyviruses (reviewed in reference 18). Relevant regions of interaction, known (Inline graphic) and hypothetical (Inline graphic), are indicated. Relative sizes of the components are not to scale.
