This research investigates how certain plant viruses are excluded from reproductive cells, which could help prevent the spread of viral diseases in agriculture. It aims to identify the molecular mechanisms behind this exclusion and improve plant antiviral defenses.
With this proposal I will address a long-known but still not understood phenomenon in plant virology.
Despite extreme replication rates in infected somatic tissues, many plant viruses are excluded from stem cells in the shoot apical meristem and subsequently from the progeny of flowering plants, suggesting that reproductive cells possess an exceptionally efficient antiviral defense.
Yet some viruses overcome this barrier and pose a substantial agricultural risk of spreading viral diseases throug…
