Abstract
Molecular motors have been extensively studied over the past 25 years using a range of optical microscopy methods. The specific example of RNA polymerase, responsible for transcribing the information encoded in DNA into RNA, illustrates the strength of the convergence between these recent approaches and the vast store of data collected over the past half century using the more βclassicalβ approaches of genetics, biochemistry, and structure elucidation.

We discuss a difficulty that may be raised against the Diener hypothesis that viroids may be interpreted as molecular fossils of the RNA world. We provide a possible way of removing such a difficulty (hence supporting the Diener hypothesis). Our reasoning entails further work by plant pathologists o
