Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The non conventional RTM (Restricted Tobacco etch virus Movement) resistance which restricts long distance movement of some plant viruses in Arabidopsis thaliana is still poorly understood. Though at least three RTM genes have been identified, their precise role(s) in the process as well as whether other genes are involved needs to be elucidated. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: In this study, the...
