Depending on whether a lax or strict definition is used, the term virusoid may also include Hepatitis D virus (HDV). Like plant virusoids, HDV is circular, single-stranded, and supported by a helper virus (Hepatitis B virus) to form virions; however, the virions possess a much larger genome size (~1700 nt) and encode a protein.
Viroids are small single-stranded, circular RNAs that are infectious pathogens. [1] [2] Unlike viruses, they have no protein coating.All known viroids are inhabitants of angiosperms (flowering plants), [3] and most cause diseases whose economic importance to humans varies widely. [4]
