RNA 1 Polymerase

RNA 1 encodes the RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) or replicase protein responsible for the propagation of Beet Necrotic Yellow Vein Virus (BNYVV).

The RZM genetic element is the inverted repeat of a part of the RNA-1 gene transcript of the BNYVV.

In plants carrying the RZM gene, it confers resistance to Rhizomania disease caused by BNYVV  by disrupting the replication process of the virus thus leading to a reduction in the development of the virus in the plant.
