Engineering Resistance against Viral Diseases in Plants

  • Chapter
Plant-Microbe Interactions

Part of the book series: Subcellular Biochemistry ((SCBI,volume 29))

Abstract

Viral diseases can result in severe losses to many agriculturally important crops. Genetic engineering proposes an interesting alternative to more traditional techniques intended to preserve plants from becoming infected. This review addresses proven genetic engineering strategies devised to control virus infection and also points to other schemes which are currently being tested. Although it has no ambition of covering the entire field, an effort has been made to point out as many different elements as possible to understand the molecular mechanisms on which the strategies are based, their degree of effectiveness, and their applicability.
