| Sumario: | Viruses infect plant cells and cause disease which has a major impact on the economy. Viruses replicate and express their RNA/DNA in a host. plant cell resulting in the production of 'alien' proteins which can cause the destruction or enhancement of a plant. The ability of plants to. integrate single stranded DNA from viral transfer vectors into their genomes provides us with a powerful tool for genetically engineering plants. Such transgenic plants may have qualities such as improved resistance to disease, longer flowering life, or being able to produce larger fruits. Understanding plant viru. |
