The closterovirus-derived gene expression and RNA interference vectors as tools for research and plant biotechnology [PDF]
Important progress in understanding replication, interactions with host plants, and evolution of closteroviruses enabled engineering of several vectors for gene expression and virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS).

New closterovirus in ‘Redglobe’ grape causes decline of grafted plants [PDF]
In California, first-generation table grape vineyards were planted on their own roots. But in recent years growers have been replanting onto acreage previously in grapes more often.

Suppression of Potyvirus Infection by Coexpressed Closterovirus Protein [PDF]
A tobacco etch virus (TEV)-based expression vector has been used for insertion of several ORFs derived from the unrelated beet yellows virus (BYV). Hybrid TEV variants expressing the BYV capsid protein, 20-kDa protein, or HSP70 homolog systemically infected Nicotiana tabacum and stably retained BYV sequences.

Grapevine leafroll-associated closterovirus 7 in Greece
An extensive survey was carried out to assess, by ELISA, the occurrence of grapevine closteroviruses in several grape-growing areas of Greece, with particular regard to GLRaV-7. Samples were collected in commercial vineyards and varietal collections from

Genetic Analysis of the Cell-to-Cell Movement of Beet Yellows Closterovirus [PDF]
A beet yellows closterovirus (BYV) variant expressing green fluorescent protein and leaves of BYV local lesion host Claytonia perfoliata were used to reveal genetic requirements for BYV cell-to-cell movement in leaf epidermis and mesophyll. A series of mutations targeting genes that are not involved in amplification of the viral positive-strand RNA was

Subcellular Localization of the HSP70-Homolog Encoded by Beet Yellows Closterovirus [PDF]
Closteroviridae is the only viral family coding for a homolog of HSP70 (HSP70h). Polyclonal antiserum to recombinant beet yellows closterovirus (BYV) HSP70h was generated and used for immunogold labeling of the leaf samples derived from the infected Nicotiana benthamiana plants.

Silencing Suppressor Protein p26 of Areca Palm Velarivirus 1 (APV1) Interacts With SGS3 and Promotes Its Degradation Via the Ubiquitination Pathway. [PDF]
APV1‐encoded p26 protein is a multifunctional VSR that suppresses RNA silencing and blocks the systemic spread of silencing signals. p26 interacts with host SGS3, a key component of the plant antiviral silencing pathway, and targets SGS3 for accelerated degradation via the ubiquitination pathway.
