The six Tomato yellow leaf curl virus genes expressed individually in tomato induce different levels of plant stress response attenuation

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is a begomovirus infecting tomato plants worldwide. TYLCV needs a healthy host environment to ensure a successful infection cycle for long periods. H...

The Involvement of HSP70 and HSP90 inTomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus Infection in Tomato Plants and Insect Vectors

Cellular chaperones HSP70 and HSP90 are involved in Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) infection. TYLCV is a begomovirus transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci to tomato and other crops. In infected tomato...

Insect Symbiotic Bacterial GroEL (Chaperonin 60) and Plant Virus Transmission

GroEL is a multifunctional protein belonging to the conspicuous family of chaperones active in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. GroEL of Escherichia coli is a heat shock-like protein (Hsp60). It is involved in t...

A developmentally regulated lipocalin-like gene is overexpressed in Tomato yellow leaf curl virus-resistant tomato plants upon virus inoculation, and its silencing abolishes resistance

To discover genes involved in tomato resistance to Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), we previously compared cDNA libraries from susceptible (S) and resistant (R) tomato lines. Among the genes preferentially ...

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus infection of a resistant tomato line with a silenced sucrose transporter gene LeHT1 results in inhibition of growth, enhanced virus spread, and necrosis

To identify genes involved in resistance of tomato to Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), cDNA libraries from lines resistant (R) and susceptible (S) to the virus were compared. The hex...

Expressing a whitefly GroEL protein in Nicotiana benthamiana plants confers tolerance to tomato yellow leaf curl virus and cucumber mosaic virus, but not to grapevine virus A or tobacco mosaic virus

Transgenesis offers many ways to obtain virus-resistant plants. However, in most cases resistance is against a single virus or viral strain. We have taken a novel approach based on the ability of a whitefly en...

Biotic and Abiotic Stress Responses in Tomato Breeding Lines Resistant and Susceptible to Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus

In the eyes of a tomato grower, resistance to TYLCV, as opposed to susceptibility, is defined by the absence of, or mild, disease symptoms, and acceptable yield. In resistant cultivars and breeding lines, the ...

Site-specific recombination in Arabidopsis plants promoted by the Integrase protein of coliphage HK022

The gene encoding the wild type Integrase protein of coliphage HK022 was integrated chromosomally and expressed in Arabidopsis thaliana plants. Double-transgenic plants cloned with the int gene as well as with a ...
