Transgenic tobacco plants expressing the Potato virus X open reading frame 3 gene develop specific resistance and necrotic ring symptoms after infection with the homologous virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Tobacco plants were transformed with the open reading frame 3 gene from Potato virus X (PVX) coding for the p12 protein. Although the transgenic plants exhibited a normal morphological aspect, microscopic examination revealed extensive alterations in ...

Study on the contrast of the MHC–peptide interaction of B2/B21 haplotype and MHC‐related virus resistance in chickens

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2021
Introduction Three‐dimensional (3D) structures of MHC class I exert some influence by the MHC–peptide interaction over host resistance to the virus. The thesis aims at studying the connection between MHC–peptide interaction of B2/B21 haplotype and MHC ...

Virus satellites drive viral evolution and ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Virus satellites are widespread subcellular entities, present both in eukaryotic and in prokaryotic cells. Their modus vivendi involves parasitism of the life cycle of their inducing helper viruses, which assures their transmission to a new host. However,

Herpes simplex virus resistance to antivirals [PDF]

open access: yesVirologie, 2020
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections remain an important cause of morbidity among immunocompromised patients, such as transplant recipients and human immunodeficiency virus [HIV]-infected individuals. Only few antiviral drugs are available to treat HSV infections: (val)acyclovir, foscarnet, and cidofovir. Prophylactic and curative antiviral treatments

A novel strategy to enhance resistance to Cucumber mosaic virus in tomato by grafting to transgenic rootstocks

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2016
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) can infect a wide range of host species. For the lacking of CMV resistant varieties of tomato, RNA interference (RNAi) can be used as a fast and effective method for the generation of transgenic resistant varieties.

Cross-Resistance of the Codling Moth against Different Isolates of Cydia pomonella Granulovirus Is Caused by Two Different but Genetically Linked Resistance Mechanisms

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) is a widely used biological control agent of the codling moth. Recently, however, the codling moth has developed different types of field resistance against CpGV isolates.
