- Intervention effect Eliminating ORF6 from TMV attenuated host responses in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Eliminating ORF6 from TMV did not change virus accumulation in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Heterologous expression of TMV ORF6 from PVX enhanced PVX virulence in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Heterologous expression of TMV ORF6 from TRV enhanced TRV virulence in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Heterologous expression of TMV ORF6 did not change accumulation of PVX or TRV in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Intervention effect The presence or absence of TMV ORF6 had no effect on host response in N. tabacum infected with TMV or PVX.
- Intervention effect TMV ORF6 had no effect on the synergism between TMV and PVX in N. tabacum.
- Intervention effect The presence of TMV ORF6 had an effect on the pathogenicity of a TRV vector in N. tabacum.
- Observation The encoded 4.8 kDa ORF6 protein fused to GFP showed plasmodesmatal targeting in N. benthamiana epidermal cells.
- Observation The encoded 4.8 kDa ORF6 protein fused to GFP showed widespread cytosolic fluorescence in N. benthamiana epidermal cells.
