Abstract

The virus maturation in fat body cells infected with P. rapae granulosis virus were also examined to have the following results. Thin section of P. rapae GV granules showed a regular lattice of the granule enclosing virus particles. Virus particles were observed to penetrate the fat body cells by fusion or viropexis type. The blood and fat body cells uptaked the granulosis viruses a phagosome, in which they were digested by lysosomal enzymes.
