Evidence that vector transmission of a plant virus requires conformational change in virus particles.

Journal of molecular biology - 30 Apr 2004

Abstract excerpt

Transmission of Cucumber necrosis virus (CNV) by zoospores of its fungal vector, Olpidium bornovanus, involves specific adsorption of virus particles onto the zoospore plasmalemma prior to infestation of cucumber roots by virus-bound zoospores. Previous work has shown that specific components of both CNV and zoospores are required for successful CNV/zoospore recognition. Here, we show that limited trypsin...
