  • Geminivirus resistant transgenic plants
    Patent number: 8039688
    Abstract: Transgenic plants with increased resistance to geminivirus infection, and nucleic acid constructs useful in producing such plants, are described. In addition, methods of making the transgenic plants of the present invention are included. The transgenic plants express a mutant AL1/C1 geminivirus protein, which increases resistance to infection by at least one geminivirus, compared to a non-transformed control plant.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 30, 2009
    Date of Patent: October 18, 2011
    Assignees: North Carolina State University, The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Linda Hanley-Bowdoin, Beverly Orozco, Wilhelm Gruissem
