Adaptation of turnip mosaic virus to Arabidopsis thaliana involves rewiring of VPg - host proteome interactions

The paper investigates how mutations in TuMV's VPg protein affect its interactions with host proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana, revealing their impact on viral adaptation and plant tolerance.

Defects in plant immunity modulate the rates and patterns of RNA virus evolution

This study shows that host immunity differences affect RNA virus evolution rates and patterns, with resistant hosts driving faster adaptation and permissive hosts selecting for specialist viruses.

Exploring the role of cellular homologous of the 30K-superfamily of plant virus movement proteins

The paper investigates the functional role of a plant virus movement protein homolog in Arabidopsis thaliana, showing its impact on development, salinity stress, and viral infectivity.
