Potential of ribonuclease-sinthesizing plant growth promoting rhizobacteria in plant defence against viruses
Abstract:Viruses cause epiphytotics on all major cultures of agronomic importance, representing a serious danger to global food security. As strictly intracellular pathogens, they cannot be controlled chemically and prophylactic measures consist mainly in the destruction of infected plants and excessive pesticide applications to limit the population of vector organisms. An alternative antiviral strategy is associated with the use of microbial enzymes, which are less toxic and are readily decomposed without accumulation… Show more
