The ability of plant viruses to propagate their genomes in host cells depends on many host
factors. In the absence of an agrochemical that specifically targets plant viral infection cycles …

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a crucial, under‐researched crop feeding millions
worldwide, especially in Africa. Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) has plagued production in …

One of the plant host resistance machineries to viruses is attributed to recessive alleles of
genes encoding critical host factors for virus infection. This type of resistance, also referred …

Wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) and Triticum mosaic virus (TriMV) are economically
important viral pathogens of wheat. Wheat cvs. Mace, carrying the Wsm1 gene, is resistant to …

Allele mining on susceptibility factors offers opportunities to find new sources of resistance
among crop wild relatives for breeding purposes. As a proof of concept, we used available …

Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) has the broadest host range among plant viruses, causing
enormous losses in agriculture. In melon, strains of subgroup II are unable to establish a …

In this study, we report the contribution of a PDI-like gene from wheat wild relative Haynaldia
villosa in combating powdery mildew. PDI-V protein contains two conserved thioredoxin …

This paper describes a rapid and cost-effective assay for identifying economically important
barley resistance genes based on multiplex PCR. A newly created reaction mixture is used …

Le virus de la panachure jaune (RYMV) est une contrainte majeure pour la riziculture en
Afrique. Deux gènes contrôlant des résistances récessives ont précédemment été décrits …

Plant genes differentially expressed during plant–pathogen interactions can be important for
host immunity or can contribute to pathogen virulence. Large‐scale transcript profiling …
