Publisher Summary It is clear from the experimental data that there are some similarities in
RNA replication for all eukaryotic positive-stranded RNA viruses—that is, the mechanism of …

Successful systemic infection of a plant by Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) requires three
processes that repeat over time: initial establishment and accumulation in invaded cells …

ABSTRACT A genetic analysis of root development in Arabidopsis thaliana has identified
mutants that have abnormal morphogenesis. Four of these root morphogenesis mutants …

WRKY transcription factors are key players in the plant immune response, but less is known
about their involvement in antiviral defense than about their roles in defense against …

Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi nn plants were transformed with nucleotides 3472-4916 of
tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) strain U1. This sequence contains all but the three 3 terminal …

The primary walls of grasses are composed of cellulose microfibrils,
glucuronoarabinoxylans (GAXs), and mixed-linkage β-glucans, together with smaller …

Systemic infections of plants by viruses require that viruses modify host cells in order to
facilitate infections. These modifications include induction of host factors required for …

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) derivatives that encode movement protein (MP) as a fusion to
the green fluorescent protein (MP: GFP) were used in combination with antibody staining to …

Little is known about the mechanisms of intracellular targeting of viral nucleic acids within
infected cells. We used in situ hybridization to visualize the distribution of tobacco mosaic …

Virus-induced cytoplasmic inclusion bodies (referred to as virus replication complexes
[VRCs]) consisting of virus and host components are observed in plant cells infected with …
