Abstract

The present invention relates to a plant-infectious nucleic acid molecule from Pepper mottle virus, and a viral vector, a transformed cell and a transgenic plant having it. The present invention first achieves the cloning of the infectious full-length pepper mottle virus cDNA from virus-infected pepper, which enables to perform the molecular biological studies to the infectivity of pepper mottle virus in pepper and tobacco and to provide a plant virus-based vector to highly express a useful foreign protein.
