Nucleotide bias of DCL and AGO in plant anti-virus gene silencing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

Layer‐by‐Layer Assembly of Plant Viruses Utilizing Specific Binding

open access: yesphysica status solidi (a), EarlyView.
A bilayer of the tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) is constructed layer‐by‐layer by utilizing the specific interaction between Strep‐Tactin (an engineered type of streptavidin) and modified TBSV with Strep‐Tag II (an engineered type of biotin) side chains. A layer coverage above 84% could be achieved.

A maize non- infectious clone from Sugarcane mosaic virus can move in detached tobacco leaves

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences
Background: Infectious clones are copies of a virus genome produced in vitro or inside a vector and can infect inoculated healthy plants or cells. They are important tools to study the molecular biology of viruses.

The Anatomy of Tobacco Mosaic Virus

open access: yes, 1957
Publisher Summary This chapter explores those aspects of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) that help in interpreting the structure of the particle. The internal anatomy of the particle has two aspects: how are the protein and nucleic acid disposed relative to one another, and from what sort of subunits is each made. There are likewise two main techniques by

Tobacco Rar1, EDS1 and NPR1/NIM1 like genes are required for N-mediated resistance to tobacco mosaic virus.

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2002
The tobacco N gene confers resistance to tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and encodes a Toll-interleukin-1 receptor/nucleotide binding site/leucine-rich repeat (TIR-NBS-LRR) class protein.

A SlMYB78‐regulated bifunctional gene cluster for phenolamide and salicylic acid biosynthesis during tomato domestication, reducing disease resistance

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The tomato transcription factor SlMYB78 controls a key metabolic gene cluster including ENHANCED PSEUDOMONAS SUSCEPTIBILTY 1, encoding a key enzyme that produces disease‐fighting compounds (phenolamides) and immune signals (salicylic acid). During domestication, tomatoes lost a superior variant (SlEPS1HapB), weakening disease resistance; restoring this

The road less taken: Dihydroflavonol 4‐reductase inactivation and delphinidin anthocyanin loss underpins a natural intraspecific flower colour variation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual cues are of critical importance for the attraction of animal pollinators, however, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underpinning intraspecific floral colour variation. Here, we combined comparative spectral analysis, targeted metabolite profiling, multi‐tissue transcriptomics, differential gene expression, sequence ...

A petunia ethylene-responsive element binding factor, PhERF2, plays an important role in antiviral RNA silencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Virus-induced RNA silencing is involved in plant antiviral defense and requires key enzyme components, including RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RDRs), Dicer-like RNase III enzymes (DCLs), and Argonaute proteins (AGOs).

Application of Plant Viruses as a Biotemplate for Nanomaterial Fabrication

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Viruses are widely used to fabricate nanomaterials in the field of nanotechnology. Plant viruses are of great interest to the nanotechnology field because of their symmetry, polyvalency, homogeneous size distribution, and ability to self-assemble.
