Answer:

It enables it to be left with little or no resistance

Explanation:

The pinewood nematode , Bursaphelenchus xylophilus is a plant-parasitic nematode that causes severe death of pine trees.

The pine trees developed a mechanism over the years by producing a chemical compound called α-pinene . This helps in fighting against the nematodes. If enzymes are produced to digest this chemical then the pine wood nematode will thrive well and result in the death of the pine trees.

An experiment was done by Gierer and Schramm where they exposed plant tissue to purified RNA from tobacco mosaic virus, and the
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

A DNase is also known as deoxyribonuclease and it is an enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of deoxyribonucleic acid by cleaving the phosphodiester linkage in their structures. Thus,<em> if the RNA is treated with a DNase before the plants are exposed to it, it will not make any difference. The plants will develop the same types of lesions as if they have been exposed to the mosaic virus.</em>

Unlike DNase, RNase is a ribonuclease, an enzyme that is capable of carrying out catalytic degradation of ribonucleic acids. <em>This means that if the RNA is treated with RNase before the plants are made to be exposed to it, they will not develop the lesions because the RNA would have been degraded by the enzyme.</em>

A protease is an enzyme that degrades the structure of proteins. <em>Treating a RNA with protease will thus have no effect on the structure of the RNA. Exposing the plants to the protease-treated RNA will make no difference. The plants will still come down with the lesions as if they have been exposed to the virus. </em>
