Exploitation of natural genetic diversity to study plant-virus interactions: what can we learn from Arabidopsis thaliana?

Abstract excerpt

The development and use of cultivars that are genetically resistant to viruses is an efficient strategy to tackle the problems of virus diseases. Over the past two decades, the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana has been documented as a host for a broad range of viral species, providing access to a large panel of resources and tools for the study of viral infection processes and resistance mechanisms.
