Optimized cDNA libraries for virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) using tobacco rattle virus
Background Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) has emerged as a method for performing rapid loss-of-function experiments in plants. Despite its expanding use, the effect of host gene insert length and other properties on silencing efficiency have not ...

Sequential Reconstitution of Tobacco Rattle Virus
Summary Conditions suitable for in vitro reconstitution of the CAM strain of TRV have been defined, and various steps of rod morphogenesis have been studied. The CAM strain of TRV was found to reconstitute best at pH 4·7 in 0·5 m-phosphate buffer at low temperature, unlike the C isolate of TRV which was shown by Semancik & Reynolds (1969) to ...

Establishment and Verification of An Efficient Virus-induced Gene Silencing System in Forsythia
To understand the functional identification of large-scale genomic sequences in Forsythia, tobacco rattle virus (TRV)-mediated virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS), suitable for the plant, was explored in this study.

Transgenic Samsun NN tobacco plants expressing the coat protein of tobacco rattle virus were exposed to mechanical leaf inoculation with tobacco rattle virus and to viruliferous trichodorid vector nematodes. Whereas plants were resistant to mechanical inoculation the vector nematodes successfully transmitted tobacco rattle virus to the roots as well as

Tobacco Rattle Virus in Tobacco Mesophyll Protoplasts: Infection and Virus Multiplication
Summary Poly-l-ornithine greatly increased infection of protoplasts by tobacco rattle virus (TRV), and had the largest effect when incubated with virus particles for at least 10 min before inoculation. Using a final concentration of 1 µg/ml TRV particles and 1 to 1.5 µg/ml poly-l-ornithine in 0.025 m-phosphate buffer, pH 6.0, to inoculate mesophyll ...

Separation and Properties of Particles of Tobacco Rattle Virus with Different Lengths [PDF]
SUMMARY: Tobacco rattle virus was isolated from tobacco sap by differential centrifugation; the yield was about 50 mg. virus/1. sap. Purified preparations were highly infective, precipitated optimally at pH 4·0–4·5, and contained one electrophoretic component; chemical analysis and the ultraviolet absorption spectrum suggest they contain about 5 ...
