Do virus-resistant plants pose a threat to non-target ecosystems? I. Evidence from an Australian pathosystem based on glasshouse challenge experiments
2009-08-01
Abstract excerpt
One key environmental risk associated with the release of novel disease-resistant plants is the potential for non-target host populations to acquire resistance genes and undergo enemy release, leading to damage to associated native plant populations in high conservation-value ecosystems. Unfortunately, the dynamics of most natural pathosystems are poorly understood, and risk assessment of disease-resistant plants...
