Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Of the three ToTV coat protein subunits, only Vp26 enhanced PVX pathogenicity, causing severe necrosis of the infected tomato plant.
- Intervention effect RNase activity increased only in plants infected with PVX-Vp26 chimeras.
- Intervention effect Oxidative activities increased only in plants infected with PVX-Vp26 chimeras.
- Association The increased RNase activity was suspected to be associated with increased accumulation of PR10 mRNA and its translation products.
- Observation Mass spectrometry identified PR10 in the protein fraction with induced ribonuclease activity.
- Mechanism Vp26 acts as the elicitor of hypersensitive response-like reactions of PVX-Vp26 in tomato.
