Membrane Insertion and Biogenesis of the Turnip Crinkle Virus p9 Movement Protein [PDF]
ABSTRACT Plant viral infection and spread depends on the successful introduction of a virus into a cell of a compatible host, followed by replication and cell-to-cell transport. The movement proteins (MPs) p8 and p9 of Turnip crinkle virus are required for cell-to-cell movement of the virus.

Background Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a useful tool for functional characterizations of plant genes. However, the penetrance of VIGS varies depending on the genes to be silenced, and has to be evaluated by examining the transcript levels of ...

Infection of plants by multiple viruses is common in nature. Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and Turnip crinkle virus (TCV) belong to different families, but Arabidopsis thaliana and Nicotiana benthamiana are commonly shared hosts for both viruses. In this study, we found that TCV provides effective resistance to infection by CMV in Arabidopsis plants co ...

An antiviral defense role of AGO2 in plants.
BackgroundArgonaute (AGO) proteins bind to small-interfering (si)RNAs and micro (mi)RNAs to target RNA silencing against viruses, transgenes and in regulation of mRNAs.

The evolutionary arms race between plants and viruses hinges on the sophistication of host defense mechanisms and viral counter-defenses. RNA silencing serves as a fundamental antiviral strategy in plants, primarily mediated by Dicer-like (DCL) proteins ...

Analysis of the Replication Proteins and Satellites of the Turnip Crinkle Virus
The Turnip Crinkle Virus (TCV) is a single‐stranded, positivesense RNA plant virus that serves as a model organism for related human and animal RNA viruses, such as the West Nile, SARS‐CoV and Hepatitis C viruses. All positive‐sense RNA viruses replicate through asymmetrical replication; understanding the detailed biochemistry of this process should ...

Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

The E3 ubiquitin ligase COP1 (Constitutive Photomorphogenesis 1) is a well known component of the light-mediated plant development that acts as a repressor of photomorphogenesis.

ABSTRACT Plant viruses are recognized as rapid and effective vectors to deliver CRISPR‐Cas reaction components into plants, a strategy termed virus‐induced gene editing (VIGE). However, VIGE is limited by the host range of the viral vectors. Development of new viral vectors to target a broad range of plant species will potentially enable the delivery ...
