Sobemovirus

Sobemovirus is a genus of non-enveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses which infect plants.

[1] The genome is a single piece of linear, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA, 4,100–5,700 nucleotides in length.

[4] ORF1 encodes P1 which plays a role in suppression of silencing and virus movement.

[citation needed] The genus includes the following species:[2] Viral replication is cytoplasmic.

The virus exits the host cell by tubule-guided viral movement.

The genome of sobemoviruses exemplified by Sesbania mosaic virus.
