Reduced risk of a next-generation recombinant viral vector engineered from a plant rhabdovirus genome

Kirsten A. Lahre, César Augusto Diniz Xavier, Layna Sather, Anna E. Whitfield, Dorith Rotenberg

This study evaluates the risk of a recombinant plant rhabdovirus, MMV-GFP, compared to its wildtype MMV-WT, finding it less fit and posing no greater risk to crops or ecosystems.
