Abstract
Tobacco (Tb) and tomato (Tm) isolates of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) disassemble in dilute alkaline solutions (pH > 8.0). Tm-TMV is more sensitive to alkali than is Tb-TMV. Tb protein is, however, able to partially stabilize both Tm-TMV and Tb-TMV, thus retarding the rate of alkaline disassembly. Tm protein is unable to stabilize Tm-TMV and also increases the rate of alkaline disassembly of Tb-TMV.
