Abstract excerpt
The N gene conditions for resistance to Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) but only below 28 degrees C. However, a TMV-based vector expressing green fluorescent protein (TMV-GFP) showed only limited movement at 33 degrees C in tobacco plants harboring the N gene and other genes cointrogressed from Nicotiana glutinosa. TMV-GFP moved efficiently in tobacco plants that either lacked these genes or that contained the N gene...
