A Replicating Viral Vector Greatly Enhances Accumulation of Helical Virus-Like Particles in Plants

The production of plant helical virus-like particles (VLPs) via plant-based expression has been problematic with previous studies suggesting that an RNA scaffold may be necessary for their efficient production. To examine this, we compared the accumulation of VLPs from two potexviruses, papaya mosai...
