Particles produced during a mixed infection by two tobamoviruses contain coat proteins of both viruses.
Particles from plants mixedly infected with two tobamoviruses, whose particles differ in density, were all of a single, intermediate density, suggesting that they contain both coat proteins and that the proteins occur in the same proportion in all particles. Plants inoculated with the genome-containing particles of one of the tobamoviruses together with the noninfective, short, coat protein messenger-containing particles of the other yielded only particles with the density of the first;.there was no evidence of complementation.
