A) a) double stranded DNA virus using DNA polymerase to replicate b) double stranded RNA virus using an RNA polymerase to replicate c) single stranded RNA virus using an RNA polymerase to replicate d) single stranded DNA virus using DNA polymerase to replicate e) none of the choices is correct Answer d Difficulty Medium Learning Objective LO Doublestranded RNA is present in extracts of tobacco plants infected with tobacco mosaic virus Derrick KS Serologically specific electron microscopy was used to detect doublestranded RNA in extracts of tobacco infected with tobacco mosaic virus Exogenous application of doublestranded RNA (dsRNA) in the tobacco–Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) pathosystem was shown previously to induce resistance against TMV providing an alternative approach to transgenesis In the present study, we employed proteomics technology to elucidate the effect of TMV on tobacco as well as the effect of exogenous
