TMV-vsiRNA 22 nt (6285–6306) targets a C2-domain ABA-related 7-like protein in N. benthamiana plants after virus infection. a Prediction of a putative host target gene of TMV-vsiRNA 22 nt (6285–6306). A transcript sequence located in N. benthamiana genome scaffold Niben101Scf12415g00017.1 showed near-perfect sequence complementarity with TMV-vsiRNA 22 nt (6285–6306). b The relative expression level of Nb-CAR7 in TMV-infected plants was lower than that in mock-inoculated and TMV-43A-infected N. benthamiana plants at 4 dpi. * represents P < 0.05 compared with mock-inoculated group. c A unique Nb-CAR7 fragment was amplified by 5′-RLM-RACE from the TMV-infected N. benthamiana plants but not from the mock-inoculated plants, indicating TMV-vsiRNA 22 nt-directed cleavage of the Nb-CAR7 transcript
