The tomato phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C2 (SlPLC2) is required for defense gene induction by the fungal elicitor xylanase [PDF]
The tomato [Solanum lycopersicum (Sl)] phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C (PI-PLC) gene family is composed of six members, named SlPLC1 to SlPLC6, differentially regulated upon pathogen attack. We have previously shown that the fungal elicitor xylanase

ABSTRACT Oomycete pathogens secrete hundreds of RXLR effectors into plant cells to modulate host immunity by targeting diverse plant proteins. Here, we report that the Peronophythora litchii RXLR effector PlAvh133 acts as a virulence factor and targets the litchi glycolate oxidase (GLO) LcGLO1, a key enzyme in photorespiration, thereby suppressing ...

Functions of the Two Particles of Tobacco Rattle Virus [PDF]
Functions of long and short particles of five different tobacco rattle virus (TRV) systems were studied by complementation experiments with the corresponding long and short species of ribonucleic acid (RNA). The progeny of long RNA species alone was proteinless or “free” infectious long RNA, whereas short RNA species alone did not replicate by ...

ABSTRACT Plant viruses are so harmful to crops. It is an urgent need to develop modern, environment‐friendly, and sustainable plant viral epidemic‐management strategies that are safe for both human health and the environment. The field of nanotechnology is gaining increased interest in plant science.

RNA-dependent RNA polymerase 1 in potato (Solanum tuberosum) and its relationship to other plant RNA-dependent RNA polymerases. [PDF]
Cellular RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RDRs) catalyze synthesis of double-stranded RNAs that can serve to initiate or amplify RNA silencing. Arabidopsis thaliana has six RDR genes; RDRs 1, 2 and 6 have roles in anti-viral RNA silencing.

ABSTRACT Tobamoviruses establish viral replication organelles (VROs) on the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for their replication, a process demanding substantial different types of lipids. However, how viruses efficiently transfer these lipids from other compartments like chloroplasts remains incompletely understood.

Polypeptides Induced by Tobacco Rattle Virus during Multiplication in Tobacco Protoplasts
Tobacco protoplasts were irradiated with UV light, inoculated with tobacco rattle virus (TRV), and then cultured in media containing 35S-methionine. Polypeptides induced by TRV infection were detected by PAGE of protein extracts. Three 35S-labeled polypeptides (apparent molecular weights 187,000, 142,000, and 31,000) occurred in extracts of virus ...
