Cauliflower mosaic virus contains

  1. ss RNA
  2. ds RNA
  3. ds DNA
  4. ss DNA

Answer

(3) ds DNA

Solution

As per NCERT, viruses contain either RNA or DNA; in general, plant viruses have single-stranded RNA, while animal viruses have single- or double-stranded RNA or double-stranded DNA.

Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) is an exception among plant viruses: its genome is a circular double-stranded DNA.

∴ Cauliflower mosaic virus contains ds DNA.
