Transgenic tobacco cells: a permissive system for the assessment of resistance strategies against Tomato yellow leaf curl virus
Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is a major threat to tomato production in the tropics and sub-tropics around the world. The application of genetic engineering and pathogen derived resistance mechanisms to obtain tomatoes that are resistant to this pathogen is considered a promising alternative...
