Abstract excerpt
Understanding in intimate details how the viroid interaction with host's defense genes is a cornerstone for developing viroid resistant plants. In this present study, small RNAs (sRNA) derived from Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) were studied in silico in order to detect any interactions with the serine threonine kinase receptor, a transmembrane protein that plays a role in disease resistance in plants. Using...
