Analysis of Mechanisms Involved in the Cucumber mosaic virus Satellite RNA-mediated Transgenic Resistance in Tomato Plants

Transgenic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. UC82) plants expressing a benign variant of Cucumber mosaic virus satellite RNA (CMV Tfn-satRNA) were generated. The transformed plants did not produce symptoms when challenged with a satRNA-free strain of CMV (CMV-FL). The same plant lines initia...
