p2 of Rice grassy stunt virus (RGSV) and p6 and p9 of Rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV) isolates from Vietnam exert suppressor activity on the RNA silencing pathway
Abstract In Vietnam, the two main viruses that cause disease in rice are the Rice grassy stunt virus (RGSV) and the Rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV). Outbreaks of these two viruses have dramatically decreased rice production in Vietnam. Because natural resistance genes are unknown, an RNAi strategy may be an alternative method to develop resistance to RGSV and RRSV. However, this strategy will be efficient only if putative silencing suppressors encoded by the two viruses are neutralized. To identify these suppressors, we used the classical green fluorescent protein (GFP) agroinfiltration method in Nicotiana ben...
