Figure 5

Distribution of vsRNAs along the Melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV) genome in both positive and negative polarity and relative abundance of the four different 5′terminal nucleotides in the most representative species of vsRNAs. A, B, C and D represent the distribution of vsRNAs along the MNSV genome in cotyledon, leaf, root and phloem respectively in both polarities; positive in blue and negative in red. Arrows indicate the 5′end of MNSV subgenomics RNAs (sgRNA1 and sgRNA2). The green bold line shows the location of the coat protein p42. Broken lines indicate the hotspots validated by stem-loop RT-PCR. Pie graphs (upper right corners in A, B, C and D) show the percentage of vsRNAs in each polarity. (E) Percentage of each 5′terminal nucleotides in all the tissues and for the most abundant vsRNAs species (21 to 24-nt).
