Biotic and abiotic stresses impose a major threat to agriculture. Therefore, the efforts to
develop stress-tolerant plants are of immense importance to increase crop productivity. In …

Somaclonal variation, ie the variation induced by cell and tissue culture, offers an
opportunity to broaden the genetic variation of crops. As a result of somaclonal variation a …

Host resistance is the main means of control of plant virus diseases. This paper reviews the

Genetic variation is commonly found in tissue cultures. Plant tissues and cells cultured in
vitra do mutate with a certain frequency. These mutations, however, are not always …

Modern molecular biological techniques are allowing deeper insights into plant-pathogen
interactions than ever before. Cell-culture technology provides a powerful set of tools to …

A search was conducted to detect evidence for interactions between potato leafroll virus
(PLRV)-derived transgenes expressed in Russet Burbank potato and viruses to which the …
