Whole-Genome Deep Sequencing Reveals Host-Driven <i>in-planta</i> Evolution of Columnea Latent Viroid (CLVd) Quasi-Species Populations

Columnea latent viroid (CLVd) is one of the most serious tomato diseases. In general, viroids have high mutation rates. This generates a population of variants (so-called quasi-species) that co-exist in their host and exhibit a huge level of genetic diversity. To study the population of CLVd in indi...
