Virus-induced gene complementation reveals a transcription factor network in modulation of tomato fruit ripening [PDF]
Plant virus technology, in particular virus-induced gene silencing, is a widely used reverse- and forward-genetics tool in plant functional genomics. However the potential of virus technology to express genes to induce phenotypes or to complement mutants

Densovirus induces winged morphs in asexual clones of the rosy apple aphid, Dysaphis plantaginea [PDF]
Winged morphs of aphids are essential for their dispersal and survival. We discovered that the production of the winged morph in asexual clones of the rosy apple aphid, Dysaphis plantaginea, is dependent on their infection with a DNA virus, Dysaphis ...

Nucleotide bias of DCL and AGO in plant anti-virus gene silencing [PDF]
Plant Dicer-like (DCL) and Argonaute (AGO) are the key enzymes involved in anti-virus post-transcriptional gene silencing (AV-PTGS). Here we show that AV-PTGS exhibited nucleotide preference by calculating a relative AV-PTGS efficiency on processing ...

Non-structural proteins of arthropod-borne bunyaviruses: roles and functions [PDF]
Viruses within the Bunyaviridae family are tri-segmented, negative-stranded RNA viruses. The family includes several emerging and re-emerging viruses of humans, animals and plants, such as Rift Valley fever virus, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus ...

3′ UTR is critical for viral RNA accumulation of jasmine virus H
Jasmine virus H (JaVH) is a newly reported viral pathogen of jasmine in China and USA. To study the viral gene function and pathogenic mechanism, a full-length infectious clone of JaVH (pXT-JaVHFJ) was constructed under the control of the cauliflower ...

Exosomes mediate horizontal transmission of viral pathogens from insect vectors to plant phloem
Numerous piercing-sucking insects can horizontally transmit viral pathogens together with saliva to plant phloem, but the mechanism remains elusive. Here, we report that an important rice reovirus has hijacked small vesicles, referred to as exosomes, to ...

Genome-wide analysis of epigenetic and transcriptional changes in the pathogenesis of RGSV in rice
Rice grassy stunt virus (RGSV), a typical negative single-stranded RNA virus, invades rice and generates several disease signs, including dwarfing, tillering, and sterility.

Repurposing Plant Virus Nanoparticles [PDF]
Plants have been explored for many years as inexpensive and versatile platforms for the generation of vaccines and other biopharmaceuticals. Plant viruses have also been engineered to either express subunit vaccines or act as epitope presentation systems.
