| Title | The pepper pvr6 locus corresponds to a eIF(iso)4E gene |
| Participants | Carole Caranta (Leader) |
| Period | 2001 and after |
| Description | Simultaneous mutations in translation initiation factor eIF4E and eIF(iso)4E are required to prevent Pepper veinal mottle virus infection in pepper. This study provides new data about the recruitment of specific cap-binding isoforms by potyviruses to achieve plant infection. |
| Descriptors | translation initiation factors |
| Viruses | Pepper veinal mottle virus |
| Plants | Capsicum |
| Crops | Pepper |
| Genetic resistances | pvr6 - pepper |
