Figure 7.3.

Time course of production of TMV-related RNAs, proteins, and progeny virus particles in synchronously infected protoplasts. One-half of a batch of protoplasts was incubated with [¹⁴C] uridine in the presence of actinomycin D from the time of inoculation. The other half was incubated with [¹⁴C] leucine under the same conditions. Samples were taken for analysis at the times indicated. Data are expressed as the percentages of the maximum values attained for each component during the time course studies. (□) RI; (∆) RF; (●) TMV RNA; (■) CP mRNA; (+) 126-kDa (140-kDa) protein; (▲) CP; (○) progeny virus particles.
