1 Prof Andy Maule Leader andy.maule@bbsrc.ac.uk 44-1603-45 02 66 44-1603-45 00 45 Personal Web page male My main interests lie in studying the nature of the molecular interaction between plants and viruses. A sub-component of this work related particularly to resistance, notably recessive resistance to potyviruses, although I have published on RNA-mediated transgenic resistance in peas in the past. 1 eIF4E-based recessive resistance against pea seed borne mosaic potyvirus in pea (Leader) Virus-host interactions

2 Dr Margaret Irene Boulton Leader margaret.boulton@bbsrc.ac.uk 44-1603-45 02 67 Personal Web page female Much of my work has moved from Resistvir-related activities to the study of abiotic stress in plants. However, I retain an active interest in novel resistance to Maize streak virus in barley and insect-plant interactions. 1 Biological and genetic characterisation of novel resistance to Maize streak virus in barley (Leader) Maize streak virus
