摘要: Alphasatellites are non-essential satellite-like components associated with geminiviruses. The precise selective advantage to a geminivirus infection of an alphasatellite remains unclear. ability the cotton leaf curl Multan (CLCuMuA)-encoded replication-associated protein (Rep) suppress TGS was investigated by using Nicotiana benthamiana line 16-TGS (16-TGS) harbouring transcriptionally silenced green fluorescent (GFP) transgene. Inoculation plants recombinant Potato virus X (PVX) vector carrying CLCuMuA Rep resulted in restoration GFP expression. Northern blot analysis confirmed that observed fluorescence mRNA accumulation. PVX vectors further six proteins, encoded genetically distinct alphasatellites, were similarly shown result restored These results indicate alphasatellite-encoded can restore expression transgene N. benthamiana, indicating alphasatellites involved overcoming host defence.
