Specific binding between the coat protein (CP) and the helper component (HC) of the tobacco vein mottling potyvirus (TVMV) was characterized using a protein blotting-overlay protocol. In this in… Expand

The va gene is used in commercial Burley tobacco cultivars including cv TN 86 to confer resistance to tobacco vein mottling virus (TVMV) and, to some extent, other potyviruses. A naturally occurring… Expand
Site-directed mutations in the potyvirus HC-Pro gene affect helper component activity, virus accumulation, and symptom expression in infected tobacco plants.

Helper component (HC-Pro) is a virus-encoded nonstructural protein required for aphid transmission of potyviruses. In the tobacco vein mottling virus (TVMV) polyprotein, HC-Pro represents a 457… Expand

Mutations of K --> E in the highly conserved 'KITC' motif of the potyvirus helper component (HC) protein result in loss of HC function in aphid transmission, presumably because of inability to… Expand

A nonaphid transmissible (NAT) variant of tobacco vein mottling virus (TVMV) was used to test the hypothesis that the viral coat protein (CP) plays a role in determining aphid transmissibility.… Expand

Amino acids near the N terminus of the coat protein of tobacco vein mottling virus were deleted or altered by site-directed mutagenesis to determine the effect on aphid transmissibility of the virus.… Expand
Helper-dependent vector transmission of plant viruses.
A variety of noncirculatively transmitted viruses have evolved a vector transmission strategy that involves, in addition to virions, virus-encoded proteins that are not constituents of virions. These… Expand
Aphid stylet activities during potyvirus acquisition from plants and anin vitro system that correlate with subsequent transmission
The behavioural events associated with acquisition of tobacco etch potyvirus by starvedMyzus persicae during single, electrically-recorded penetrations of plants or a Parafilm membrane were compared.… Expand
