    Notes: Abstract The accumulation of the Kunitz-type chymotrypsin inhibitor WCI-3 in winged bean seeds is controlled developmentally. In vitro translation experiments showed that the WCI-3 mRNA was present in 35- and 40-day-old immature seeds after flowering. The size of the in vitro translation product is about 2 000 Da larger than that of the mature WCI-3 protein. The WCI-3 cDNA clones were isolated from a λgtll cDNA library of 35-day-old immature seeds by immunoscreening. A nearly full-length cDNA clone was obtained containing an open reading frame of 207 amino acid residues. The deduced sequence of the 183 carboxy terminal amino acids coincides precisely with the amino acid sequence determined for purified WCI-3. The amino terminal extension of 24 residues has the characteristics of a signal peptide. Northern hybridization analysis of total poly(A)+ RNA showed that the WCI-3 mRNA is approximately 900 nucleotides long and accumulates in 35- and 40-day-old but not in 30-day-old immature seeds.

    Notes: Summary Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is a message-sense, single-stranded RNA virus that infects many Solanaceae plants. A full-length cDNA copy of TMV genomic RNA was constructed and introduced into the genomic DNA of tobacco plants using a disarmed Ti plasmid vector. Transformed plants showed typical symptoms of TMV infection, and their leaves contained infectious TMV particles. This is the first example of the expression of RNA virus genomic RNAs in planta.

    Notes: Summary Cross protection of plant viruses is a phenomenon in which plants infected with one strain of a virus are protected from the effects of superinfection by other related strains. Recently, we have succeeded in the introduction and expression of a cDNA copy of the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) genomic RNA in transgenic tobacco plants. Using this system, we introduced a cDNA copy of a mild strain of TMV into tobacco plants. The transgenic plants did not develop any severe symptoms upon inoculation with a virulent TMV strain, indicating that these transgenic plants were cross protected against TMV infection. The system described here can be a useful model system to study the mechanism(s) of cross protection.
