Can viruses infect plants by themselves?
Yes, viruses can infect plants by themselves. Plant viruses can be transmitted by insects, through contaminated soil, or by mechanical means like pruning tools. Once inside a plant, viruses can replicate and spread throughout the plant's tissues, causing disease symptoms.
Why do plant viruses have a difficult time entering the cells they infected?
Plant viruses have a difficult time entering the cells they infect partly because plant cells are surrounded by tough cell walls that viruses alone cannot break through; however, once inside a plant they can multiply and spread rapidly.
What are Two differences observed between virus and plant cell?
One key difference between viruses and plant cells is that viruses are acellular and cannot replicate independently; they require a host cell to reproduce, while plant cells are complex, living organisms capable of photosynthesis and metabolic processes. Additionally, viruses consist of genetic material (DNA or RNA) encased in a protein coat, lacking cellular structures, whereas plant cells have a defined structure, including a cell wall, chloroplasts, and organelles that perform specific functions.

How do viruses enter a plant?
The most common way is carried by bugs, especially plant sucking bugs like aphids. They can also be spread plant to plant on uncleaned pruners or knives used on the plants.

What is Plant protease inhibitors a defense strategy in plants?
