Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Co-expression of a plant NB-LRR protein with its cognate elicitor inhibits translation of virus-encoded proteins in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Association The antiviral response in Nicotiana benthamiana depends on viral cis elements.
- Intervention effect Upon activation of the NB-LRR protein, viral transcripts accumulate in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Upon activation of the NB-LRR protein, viral transcripts do not associate with ribosomes in Nicotiana benthamiana.
- Mechanism Argonaute proteins in translational control of viral transcripts are suggested to be a key factor in NB-LRR-mediated virus resistance.
