The frontline of plant defense against non-viral pathogens such as bacteria, fungi and
oomycetes is provided by transmembrane pattern recognition receptors that detect …

Plant viruses are a class of plant pathogens that specialize in movement from cell to cell. As
part of their arsenal for infection of plants, every virus encodes a movement protein (MP), a …

Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) encodes a multifunctional protein P6 that is required for
translation of the 35S RNA and also acts as a suppressor of RNA silencing. Here we …

Biomolecular condensation is a multipurpose cellular process that viruses use ubiquitously
during their multiplication. Cauliflower mosaic virus replication complexes are condensates …

Virus interactions with plant silencing and innate immunity pathways can potentially alter the
susceptibility of virus-infected plants to secondary infections with nonviral pathogens. We …

Synaptotagmins are a large gene family in animals that have been extensively characterized
due to their role as calcium sensors to regulate synaptic vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis …

Plant viruses cannot exploit any of the membrane fusion-based routes of entry described for
animal viruses. In addition, one of the distinctive structures of plant cells, the cell wall, acts as …

Plant viruses are the most abundant destructive agents that exist in every ecosystem,
causing severe diseases in multiple crops worldwide. Currently, a major gap is present in …

The gene VI product (P6) of Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) is a multifunctional protein
known to be a major component of cytoplasmic inclusion bodies formed during CaMV …

Replication and movement are two critical steps in plant virus infection. Recent advances in
the understanding of the architecture and subcellular localization of virus‐induced …
