Coat protein-mediated resistance as an approach for controlling an Egyptian isolate of Cucumber mosaic virus (subgroup I)
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV, cucumovirus) is the most important virus infecting cucurbit crops in Egypt and worldwide causing significant loss in yield quality and quantity. The main target of the present work was to establish a simple controlling system for an Egyptian isolate of such virus (belonging to the subgroup I) via production of tobacco transgenic plants expressing viral coat ...
