Grapevine Fanleaf Virus: Biology, Biotechnology And Resistance
… genomics, and (3) discover a source of resistance to GFLV. This author addressed GFLV biology by studying the least understood aspect of GFLV: its satellite RNA. This author sequenced a new GFLV satellite RNA variant and compared it with other satellite RNA sequences. Forensic tracking …

The use of maize streak virus (MSV) replication-associated protein mutants in the development of MSV-resistant plants
… disease (MSD), MSV is the most significant pathogen of maize in Africa, resulting in crop yield losses of up to 100%. Transmitted by leafhoppers (Cicadulina spp.), MSV is indigenous to Africa and neighbouring Indian Ocean Islands. Despite maize being a crucial staple food crop in Africa, the …

Studies on Transformation of Tomato(Solanum lycopersicum L.) and Arabidopsis thaliana using Chimerical constructs of varying Tospoviral Origin
<p>Pathogen derived resistance (PDR) is a recent breakthrough where plant hosts can be made to be resistant to viral infections through transformation with conserved viral genes. Given the severity of Tospovirus diseases worldwide (particularly in tomato), PDR has the potential to garner large …
