Abstract excerpt
Ry confers extreme resistance to all strains of potato virus Y (PVY). To identify the elicitor of the Ry-mediated resistance against PVY in potato, we expressed each of the PVY-encoded proteins in leaves of PVY-resistant (Ry) and -susceptible (ry) plants. For most of the proteins tested, there was no evident response. However, when the NIa proteinase was expressed in leaves of Ry plants, there was a...
