Both Viroids and Prions have nucleic acid, but Viroids have no outer protein coat.
I have no idea so go ask someone else. The similarities between viroids and prions are that both are acellular pathogens, and do not grow and they differ in the sense that prions do not have nucleic acids while viroids have the nucleic acid,RNA.
Why is so little known about viroids
no
the viroids harm the plants that are ifected with them by giving the plants some harmful thing

Viroids
