Extracellular interactions are pivotal in the plant-pathogen arms race. Fungal, bacterial, and oomycete pathogens manipulate the apoplast to control pH, water soaking, sugar levels, and nutrient availability. Plants respond to infection wit...
The Hidden Diversity of Benyviridae and their Polymyxa Vectors: A Comparative Analysis [0.03%]
肠病毒科的隐藏多样性及其多米克氏体介体：比较分析

Margaux Genard et al.
The Benyviridae family encompasses multipartite soil-borne phytoviruses characterized by rod-shaped virions and positive single-stranded RNA genomes. The family is mostly known for its type species, the beet necrotic yellow vein virus, the ...
Cross-Protection for Plant Viruses: One Phenomenon, Several Mechanisms? [0.03%]
植物病毒的跨保护作用：一种现象，几种机理？

Anne Sicard et al.
Cross-protection, discovered nearly a century ago, is a biological control method used to manage viral plant diseases. It is usually defined as a phenomenon in which a primary infection of a host by a pathogen (e.g., a mild strain) prevents...
