Probing Plasmodesmal Transport with Plant Viruses.
Plant intercellular connections, the plasmodesmata, effectively link individual cells into one symplastic continuum and function as conduits for transport and cell-to-cell communication processes. Although plasmodesmal ultrastructure has been extensively studied (see below), very little is known about the biochemistry, molecular biology, and regulation of these intercellular channels. This lack...
متن کاملA Family of Plasmodesmal Proteins with Receptor-Like Properties for Plant Viral Movement Proteins
Plasmodesmata (PD) are essential but poorly understood structures in plant cell walls that provide symplastic continuity and intercellular communication pathways between adjacent cells and thus play fundamental roles in development and pathogenesis. Viruses encode movement proteins (MPs) that modify these tightly regulated pores to facilitate their spread from cell to cell. The most striking of...
متن کاملPlant Viruses and Insects
The principal families of insect vectors which cause the most damage to agricultural crops through the spread of plant diseases are in the order Hemiptera, and include the aphids, leafhoppers, delphacid planthoppers and whiteflies. Another important group of insect vectors found worldwide is the order Thysanoptera, the thrips. Other insects also spread plant diseases; however, aphids alone are ...
متن کاملLifestyles of plant viruses.
The vast majority of well-characterized eukaryotic viruses are those that cause acute or chronic infections in humans and domestic plants and animals. However, asymptomatic persistent viruses have been described in animals, and are thought to be sources for emerging acute viruses. Although not previously described in these terms, there are also many viruses of plants that maintain a persistent ...
متن کاملArabidopsis Plasmodesmal Proteome
The multicellular nature of plants requires that cells should communicate in order to coordinate essential functions. This is achieved in part by molecular flux through pores in the cell wall, called plasmodesmata. We describe the proteomic analysis of plasmodesmata purified from the walls of Arabidopsis suspension cells. Isolated plasmodesmata were seen as membrane-rich structures largely devo...
