Bioluminescent sentinel plants enable autonomous diagnostics of viral infections
2025-08-05
Abstract excerpt
Plants engineered with synthetic genetic programs can transform how we monitor and manage the extension of crop pests and diseases. Here, we establish a bioluminescent platform in Nicotiana benthamiana for autonomous viral sensing based on the fungal bioluminescence pathway (FBP). We first demonstrate that recombinant viruses can deliver missing pathway components, enabling spatially resolved tracking of infectio...
