Abstract excerpt
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) coat protein (CP) self assembles in viral RNA deprived transgenic plants to form aggregates based on the physical conditions of the environment. Transgenic plants in which these aggregates are developed show resistance toward infection by TMV referred to as CP-MR. This phenomenon has been extensively used to protect transgenic plants against viral diseases. The mutants T42W and E50Q CP...
