Betulinic Acid Delays Turnip Mosaic Virus Infection by Activating the Phytosulfokine Signalling Pathway in Nicotiana benthamiana

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2025.
Betulinic acid is a promising and environmentally friendly substance against plant viruses. It can delay TuMV infection by activating the PSK‐PSKR signalling pathway in Nicotiana benthamiana. ABSTRACT Plant viral diseases pose a significant threat to agricultural production, and the availability of effective drugs against viral diseases remains limited.

A novel geminivirus‐derived 3′ flanking sequence of terminator mediates the gene expression enhancement

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 1053-1066, April 2025.
Summary Exploring the new elements to re‐design the expression cassette is crucial in synthetic biology. Viruses are one of the most important sources for exploring gene expression elements. In this study, we found that the DNA sequence of the SBG51 deltasatellite from the Sweet potato leaf curl virus (SPLCV) greatly enhanced the gene expression when ...

Papain‐Like Cysteine Proteases Contribute to Functional Cleavage of Begomoviral V2 Effector Required for Relevant Virulences

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2025.
Cotton leaf curl Multan virus uses its V2 protein to promote viral infection through its interaction with a plant papain‐like cysteine protease (NbCP15), which can cleave V2 after the first two amino acids at the N‐terminus. ABSTRACT The begomoviral V2 protein is known to be multifunctional, including its interaction with and inhibition of CYP1, a ...

Characterisation of a Betasatellite Associated With Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Guangdong Virus and Discovery of an Unusual Modulation of Virus Infection Associated With C4 Protein

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2025.
The C4 protein, encoded by tomato yellow leaf curl Guangdong virus (TYLCGdV), does not inhibit PTGS or TGS; the C4 protein modulates TYLCGdV infection by regulating the cytosine methylation level of viral genome at different infection stages. ABSTRACT Tomato yellow leaf curl Guangdong virus (TYLCGdV), a monopartite begomovirus first identified in 2004,

The P2 protein of wheat yellow mosaic virus acts as a viral suppressor of RNA silencing in Nicotiana benthamiana to facilitate virus infection

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 12, Page 4543-4556, December 2024.
Abstract Wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV) causes severe viral wheat disease in Asia. The WYMV P1 protein encoded by RNA2 has viral suppressor of RNA silencing (VSR) activity to facilitate virus infection, however, VSR activity has not been identified for P2 protein encoded by RNA2.
