The Three Essential Motifs in P0 for Suppression of RNA Silencing Activity of <i>Potato leafroll virus</i> Are Required for Virus Systemic Infection

Higher plants exploit posttranscriptional gene silencing as a defense mechanism against virus infection by the RNA degradation system. Plant RNA viruses suppress posttranscriptional gene silencing using their encoded proteins. Three important motifs (F-box-like motif, G139/W140/G141-like motif, and...
