Gelsolin of insect vectors negatively regulates actin-based tubule motility of plant reoviruses

Abstract Most plant reoviruses encode a type of nonstructural protein that assembles tubular structures to package virions for viral spread in planthopper or leafhopper vectors. These tubules are propelled by actin filaments and facilitate viruses to overcome transmission barriers in insect vectors....
