Viriods and Prions
Viroids
In 1971, T.O.Diener reported that the spinde tuber disease of potato causing gnarling and cracking of the tuber, is caused by multiplication of a pathogen much smaller than viruses and present in tuber cells themselves, This pathogen found to be a free short and circular RNA strand of about 300nucleotides. Diener named it viroid. It was found that viroids are infectious because, after multiplying in a plant cell, these disperse in the tissue and invade new cells. About a dozen plant diseases have since been shown to be caused by viroids.it is also possible that the causative agents of some more plant and animals diseases turn out to be viroides.
