BSMV particles. Image courtesy of Roger Hull. Diagram showing systemic spread of silencing signal: The signal is generated in the initially infected cell (bottom, left hand) and spreads to about 10–15 adjacent cells where it is amplified. It moves out of the initially infected leaf via the phloem sieve tubes and then spreads throughout systemic leaves being amplified at various times. Image courtesy of Roger Hull.
