ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides nucleic acid sequences having an altered viral movement protein and 126/183 kDa replicase proteins further characterized in its ability tostabilize a transgene contained in a virus that expresses the altered movement protein. The present invention also provides viral vectors expressing the altered movement protein, cells transformed with the vectors, and host plants infected by the viral vectors.
