The interactions between viral RNAs and coat proteins ( CP s) are critical for the efficient completion of infection cycles of RNA viruses. However, the specificity of the interactions between CP s and genomic or subgenomic RNAs remains poorly understood. In this study, B amboo mosaic virus ( BaMV )...
