An Observation of a Very High Swelling of Bromovirus Members at Specific Ionic Strengths and pH.

(CCMV) and (BMV) are naked plant viruses with similar characteristics; both form a T = 3 icosahedral protein capsid and are members of the family. It is well known that these viruses completely disassemble and liberate their genome at a pH around 7.2 and 1 M ionic strength.
