Genetic diversity of potato leafroll virus is shaped by variant displacements and selective pressures imposed by aphid and tuber transmission routes.

Graham H. Cowan, Catherine Thomson, Emma J. Back…·E. V. Ryabov

The paper investigates how genetic diversity of PLRV is influenced by aphid and tuber transmission routes, finding that aphid transmission reduces structural gene diversity while tuber transmission maintains non-structural gene diversity.

GERMIN3 plays a role in plasmodesmatal gating to regulate meristem activation related to tuberisation, tuber dormancy release and stem branching in potato

Raymond Campbell, Graham H. Cowan, Bernhard Wurzinger…·Robert D. Hancock

This study investigates the role of GERMIN3 in potato development, showing it enhances tuber yield and affects meristem activation through plasmodesmatal gating.

Mutation of the allexivirus-specific P40 gene of Wineberry latent virus, an isolate of Blackberry virus E, greatly reduces virus multiplication

Wendy J. McGavin, Graham H. Cowan, Susan Jones, Stuart A. MacFarlane

The study mutates the P40 gene of Wineberry latent virus and shows it greatly reduces virus multiplication.
