متن کاملPeptide-mediated broad-spectrum plant resistance to tospoviruses.
Plant viruses have a significant impact on agronomic losses worldwide. A new strategy for engineering virus-resistant plants by transgenic expression of a dominant interfering peptide is presented here. This peptide of 29 aa strongly interacts with the nucleocapsid proteins (N) of different tospoviruses. Transgenic Nicotiana benthamiana lines expressing the peptide fused to a carrier protein we...
متن کاملComparative study of plant extracts as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents

Indeed, strains of several important pathogens have been identified for which very few, or even no, possibilities for antibiotic therapy exist. Althoug...
