The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanism underlying LW-1-induced resistance to TMV in wild-type and salicylic acid (SA)-deficient NahG transgenic tobacco plants. Our findings revealed that LW-1 failed to induce antivirus infection activity and increase SA content in NahG tobacco, indicating the crucial role of SA in these processes. Meanwhile, LW-1 triggered defense-related early-signaling nitric oxide (NO) generation, as evidenced by the emergence of NO fluorescence in both types of tobacco upon treatment with LW-1, however, NO fluorescence was stronger in NahG compared to wild-type tobacco. Notably, both of them were eliminated by the NO scavenger cPTIO, which also reversed LW-1-induced antivirus activity and the increase of SA content, suggesting that NO participates in LW-1-induced resistance to TMV, and may act upstream of the SA pathway. Defense-related enzymes and genes were detected in tobacco with or without TMV inoculation, and the results showed that LW-1 regulated both enzyme activity (β-1,3-glucanase [GLU], catalase [CAT] and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase [PAL]) and gene expression (PR1, PAL, WYKY4) through NO signaling in both SA-dependent and SA-independent pathways.

The ability of a cold-shock protein CspD from to protect both dicots and monocots against various pathogens is well confirmed under both greenhouse and field conditions; however, the molecular basis of this phenomenon at the transcriptomic level still remains unexplored. Expression profiles of some marker genes associated with SAR/ISR nonspecific resistance pathways and ROS scavengers were examined in CspD-treated plants, and the RNA-seq analysis of CspD-treated plants was first carried out. The ISR markers PDF1.

The Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) is a critical plant virus that can cause a significant drop in crop yield. To understand how recombinant coat-protein impacts the affinity and assembly of TMV's subunits, research is being conducted to assess the effect of recombinant protein on virus resistance. To develop a recombinant coat-protein that can lower TMV infection rates in plants, a design strategy was employed that involves creating defective viral subunits leading to incorrect assembly.

Background: TOBAMOVIRUS MULTIPLICATION 1 (TOM1) and its homolog TOBAMOVIRUS MULTIPLICATION 3 (TOM3) play a prominent role in the multiplication of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in higher plants. Although homologs of NtTOM1/TOM3 genes have been identified in several plant species, little is known about the characteristics and functions of NtTOM1/TOM3 at the genome-wide level in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.).
