Satellite RNA (satRNA) is often associated with cucumber mosaic virus (CMV); however, its origin remains unexplained and a subject for speculation. We passaged progeny of molecularly cloned CMV-Fny and CMV-LS in Nicotiana   tabacum cv. Ky 14 under greenhouse conditions. A satRNA emerged after at lea...
