Heterologous resistance to potato virus Y in transgenic tobacco plants expressing the coat protein gene of lettuce mosaic potyvirus
1993-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Heterologous protection can provide resistance against virus infection in transgenic plants and was evaluated with two potyviruses, potato virus Y (PVY) and lettuce mosaic virus (LMV). PVY causes a serious disease of tobacco. Transgenic plants, Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi, containing a modified coat protein (CP) gene of LMV have been generated and tested for resistance against PVY. Half of the 34 independent R0 t...
