To whomever posted concerning a possible plant host for Ebola virus,
an interesting article you may want to have a look at:
Regnery, R.L., Johnson, K.M., Kiley, M.P. Virion nucleic acid of
Ebola virus. J.Virol. 36:465-469, 1980.
This article points out several similarities in the sequence analysis
of Ebola, Marburg, and Rhabdoviruses (common in plants). As far as I have
seen, nothing has been found, but it is an interesting idea nonetheless.
