GENERATION OF GRAPEVINE ROOTSTOCKS FOR RESISTANCE AND SANITATION AGAINST GRAPEVINE FANLEAF VIRUS (GFLV)

摘要

The invention discloses a vector plasmid called GFLV silencing construct that confers resistance and sanitation against the grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV); plant cells transformed with said vector plasmid and a method to impart resistance and sanitation against the grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) in non-transgenic grapevines when being grafted onto seedlings generated from cells transformed with said plasmid vector. The GFLV silencing construct plasmid vector of the invention comprises inverted sequence duplicates coding for the grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) capsid protein.
