Genetically engineered immunity to Papaya ringspot virus in Australian papaya cultivars
2002-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV), which has recently been identified in Australia, is the major limiting factor in papaya production worldwide. In this paper we report the development of two Australian papaya cultivars that are immune to infection with PRSV. Papaya somatic embryos were transformed via microprojectile bombardment using a construct containing an untranslatable PRSV coat protein coding region. Immunity w...
