    The correct answer is option b. "They are often cultured in embryonated chicken eggs".

    Explanation:

    Viruses that infect plants are very particular and different from other kind of viruses. These kind of viruses, like tobacco mosaic virus or tomato spotted wilt virus, require very specific culture conditions. It is not true that plant viruses are often cultured in embryonated chicken eggs. The viruses that are often cultured in embryonated chicken eggs are the ones that infect animal cells like the influenza virus.
