High-resolution microscopy of whole plant cells reveals virus-induced changes to intercellular connectivity

Brandon C. Reagan, Allyson Angermeier, Samantha N Nuzzi…·Tessa M. Burch‐Smith

This study uses high-resolution microscopy to show that viruses increase plasmodesmata (PD) in plant cells, with movement proteins driving PD formation and Remorins inhibiting it.

Reprogramming of auxin and brassinosteroid signaling is an early part of the homeostatic response to a viral movement protein

Mazen Alazem, Jessi Kreder, Patricia Baldrich…·Tessa M. Burch‐Smith

This study identifies an auxin-BR antagonistic module that regulates plasmodesmal connectivity in response to viral movement proteins during early infection.
