| broad-spectrum transgenic resistance against distinct tospovirus species at the genus level. | thrips-borne tospoviruses cause severe damage to crops worldwide. in this investigation, tobacco lines transgenic for individual wlm constructs containing the conserved motifs of the l rna-encoded rna-dependent rna polymerase (l) gene of watermelon silver mottle virus (wsmov) were generated by agrobacterium-mediated transformation. the wlm constructs included: (i) translatable wlm in a sense orientation; (ii) untranslatable wlmt with two stop codons; (iii) untranslatable wlmts with stop codons a ... | 2014 | 24811071 |
