Exclusion of a TCV variant by its pre-inoculated relative is highly specific.

(A) Mutual exclusion between sequentially inoculated variants A and I in N. benthamiana plants. (B) Lack of exclusion between TCV variant A and CarMV. Sequential inoculations were performed as described earlier, except here the N. benthamiana plants were used as hosts. Northern blot hybridizations were carried out to distinguish the various virus variants.
