A new approach to protect tobacco plants from Cd contamination using the attenuated recombinant virus CMV△2b containing the PvSR2 gene
Reducing the Cd content in crop plants is an important process for ensuring the safety of food made from the crop. In this study, the CMV△2b vector was used to express the PvSR2 gene to reduce the Cd content of Nicotiana benthamiana plants. The infectious clone plasmid pCB301-CMVFny209△2b-PvSR2 was...
