Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a method of enhancing resistance of plants to one or multiple viruses, comprising introducing to a plant cell, and preferably expressing therein, a nucleotide sequence encoding a virus-encoded polypeptide. The present invention provides a method of enhancing the proportion of virus-resistant or virus-immune lines obtained from a single transformation experiment comprising introducing to a plant cell, a nucleotide sequence encoding a virus-encoded polypeptide operably in connection with a strong promoter sequence. The present invention provides novel gene sequences encoding the coat proteins of a virus and novel dysfunctional replicase sequences as well as gene constructs comprising same, in particular binary vector constructs suitable for introducing into plants and expressing the genes therein. The present invention provides and methods using same to enhance viral resistance in plants. The present invention provides novel methods of testing transgenic plants for the presence of a transgene.
