Intact particles of rice dwarf phytoreovirus adsorbed to and entered monolayer-cultured cells of the insect vector Nephotettix cincticeps and multiplied within the cells. Particles that lacked the P2 protein neither attached to nor infected such cells. Furthermore, P2-free particles obtained from a transmission-competent isolate of the virus were unable to infect insect vectors that had been allowed to feed on these virus particles through a membrane. However, when such virus particles were injected into insects via a glass capillary tube they successfully infected the insects, which became able to transmit the virus. These results support the hypothesis that, while P2-free particles can neither interact with nor infect cells in the intestinal tract of the insect vector, they do retain the ability to infect such cells when physically introduced into the hemolymph by injection.
