Abstract

Suspensions of Tobacco Mosaic Virus in water have a remarkable phase diagram exhibiting a number of ordered states. To some extent the ordering can be understood in terms of hard particle interactions, which makes the variety of ordered states all the more remarkable. This article discusses our current knowledge of the Tobacco Mosaic Virus system, some ideas about the types of order observed, and the possibilities for future research.
