CMV infection in maize plants. A–K, Leaf phenotypes of maize infected with CMV. Plants at 2–3-leaf stage were inoculated with saps of N. benthamiana leaves agroinfiltrated with CMV. Plant leaves were photographed at 35 dpi for each pseudorecombinant and chimeric CMV. Scale bars are 2 cm. L, Western blot analysis of CP in maize plants infected with CMV at 14 and 28 dpi. The protein expression of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) was used as the internal control. F, viral RNA from CMV-Fny; Z, viral RNA from CMV-ZMBJ; FZ, chimeric viral RNA with 5′-UTR and MP gene from Fny-RNA3 and CP gene and 3′-UTR from ZMBJ-RNA3; ZF, chimeric viral RNA with 5′-UTR and MP gene from ZMBJ-RNA3 and CP gene and 3′-UTR from Fny-RNA3.
