Many disease resistance (R) proteins of plants detect the presence of disease-causing
bacteria, viruses, or fungi by recognizing specific pathogen effector molecules that are …

Until recently, parallel genotypic adaptation was considered unlikely because phenotypic
differences were thought to be controlled by many genes. There is increasing evidence …

The interaction of proteinase inhibitors produced, in most cases, by host organisms and the
invasive proteinases of pathogens or parasites or the dietary proteinases of predators …

Potatoes are vegetatively propagated and this can result in the dissemination of pathogens,
and viruses in particular, in the tubers. Viruses infecting potato can be categorized by their …

This chapter emphasizes recent information or aspects previously not addressed fully
regarding potato viruses. It starts by discussing briefly the viruses known to infect the crop …

Potato virus X (PVX; genus Potexvirus, family Alphaflexiviridae, order Tymovirales) is one of
the most widespread and intensively studied viruses of potato. However, little is known …

The complete coat protein nucleotide sequences of 11 Potato virus X isolates from Australia
and two from Britain were compared to those of 72 others. On phylogenetic analysis, clade I …

A monogenic recessive resistance to Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) found in the Oryza
sativa indica cultivar Gigante and in a few Oryza glaberrima cultivars provided a higher level …

Breakdown of sugar beet Rz1-mediated resistance against Beet necrotic yellow vein virus
(BNYVV) infection was previously found, by reverse genetics, to be caused by a single …

To investigate the genetic variation and molecular evolution of potato virus X (PVX), 87 coat
protein (CP) gene sequences were retrieved from GenBank and analyzed. Of the PVX …
