Mixed infections of plant viruses are common in nature, and a number of important virus
diseases of plants are the outcomes of interactions between causative agents. Multiple …

A universal vector (IL-60 and auxiliary constructs), expressing or silencing genes in every
plant tested to date, is described. Plants that have been successfully manipulated by the IL …

The common assumption in potato virus epidemiology is that all daughter tubers produced
by plants coming from infected mother tubers (secondary infection) will become infected via …

Plants have developed numerous approaches to resist infection by viruses. On the other
hand, in many instances viruses have evolved to overcome these various resistance …

In this paper we review some of the most recent literature about the interactions between
Cryphonectria parasitica, the ascomycete fungus that causes chestnut blight, and viruses in …

The translocation of Melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV) within tissues of inoculated and
systemically infected Cucumis melo L.'Galia'was studied by tissue‐printing and in situ …

The effects of transgenic expression of the potato virus Y (PVY) HCPro silencing suppressor
in tobacco were examined on infection by several viruses. Infection by tobacco mosaic virus …

The RNA silencing pathway is an important component of the anti-viral immune response in
eukaryotes, particularly in plants. In turn, many viruses have evolved mechanisms to evade …

Tombusviruses use a 19 kDa protein (p19) as a suppressor of the RNA silencing pathway
during infection. The p19 protein binds to short-interfering RNA (siRNA) as a dimer and …

RNA interference (RNAi) is one of the key defense mechanisms directed against virus
infections in plants and other organisms. In this case in plants infected with viruses, short …
