Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Potato virus Y infection reduced leaf surface and plant growth, accelerated senescence, and caused veinal necrosis and leaf distortion in infected control plants.
- Association Plant age affected whether infection symptoms occurred in transgenic T plants.
- Association Plant age affected whether infection symptoms occurred in grafted control C/C plants.
- Observation Virus coat protein was detected in all studied plants despite differences in visible symptoms.
- Observation No infection symptoms were observed in T/C plants.
- Association Relative virus protein content correlated with symptom development stage in infected plants.
- Observation Virus proteins accumulated massively in the cytoplasm of infected plants.
- Intervention effect Viral infection increased plastoglobuli volume density in chloroplasts of control plants.
- Intervention effect Viral infection was associated with more abundant cores inside peroxisomes of control plants.
- Observation Virus particles were absent from chloroplast interiors.
- Observation Virus particles formed large aggregates adjacent to nuclei, chloroplasts, mitochondria and peroxisomes.
- Observation Transgenic plants were less sensitive to viral infection.
- Observation Grafted control C/C plants were less sensitive to viral infection.
- Mechanism The authors concluded that cytokinin overproduction may influence sensitivity to biotic stress.
- Mechanism The authors concluded that cultivation method may influence sensitivity to biotic stress.
