Abstract
Aberrations of the plasma membrane have been identified as the primary cytopathic effect associated with exocortis viroid in infected Gynura aurantiaca DC. The frequency of paramural bodies or plasmalemmasome-like structures is directly correlated with the initiation of symptoms, as well as the recovery of pathogenic RNA. These cytopathic structures suggest that alterations in cell-surface properties may constitute a significant phase in viroid replication or pathogenesis.
