Viral-Like Symptoms Induced by the Ectopic Expression of the p23 Gene of Citrus tristeza virus Are Citrus Specific and Do Not Correlate with the Pathogenicity of the Virus Strain

Ectopic expression of the p23 gene from a severe (T36) strain of Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) induces viral-like symptoms in Mexican lime. Here, we report that expressing the same gene from a mild strain induced similar symptoms that correlated with accumulation of p23 protein irrespective of the sou...
