a

Percent fluorescent cells where each MP was in a single cell (1 cell), or moved to 2 or more cells (≥2).

b

χ2 test for cell-to-cell movement of each MP bombarded into syta-1 vs. wild type Col-0 leaves for all three or four trails shown.

c

Each MP was assayed for cell-to-cell movement at the following times post bombardment: MPCaLCuV 36–46 h, MPTVCV 24 h, P3N-PIPOTuMV 48 h, MPCaMV 24 h.

d

Golgi marker: transmembrane domain (TM) of rat sialotranferase fused to GFP. No difference was found in the percentage of foci with 1 vs. 2 labeled cells for syta-1 vs. wild type Col-0. Foci with >2 adjacent t-TM-GFP-labeled cells were never observed. Foci were imaged at 12–24 h post bombardment.
