Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a cucumber mosaic virus (CMV)-resistant solanaceous plant. The present invention provides a CMV-resistant solanaceous plant having a mutated eIF4E gene encoding an eIF4E protein nonfunctional for CMV. In addition, the present invention provides a method for producing a CMV-resistant plant, the method comprising mutating an eIF4E gene of a solanaceous plant into a mutated eIF4E gene encoding an eIF4E protein nonfunctional for CMV.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a solanaceous plant and a solanaceous plant cell that have resistance to tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and that have the property of inhibiting TSWV infection, the property of suppressing the propagation proliferation of TSWV after infection, and/or the property of suppressing the onset of the symptoms of TSWV infection; and a method for producing the solanaceous plant. The present invention provides a solanaceous plant that has resistance to TSWV, in which at least one gene selected from the group consisting of receptor-like kinase RLK genes and homologous genes thereof has a mutation, and in which as a result of the mutation, either the expression of the gene having the mutation is suppressed or a protein encoded by the gene having the mutation is non-functional with respect to TSWV.

Abstract: Present invention relates to a virus resistant solanaceous plant, a solanaceous plant cell, and a method for producing the solanaceous plant, and the solanaceous plant has inhibitory properties against: infection by a virus of genus Begomovirus causing tomato yellow leaf curl symptoms, proliferation of the infected virus, and/or expression of infection symptoms. The present invention provides a solanaceous plant having a mutation in at least one gene selected from a group consisting of translation initiation factor eIF4E gene, receptor-like kinase RLK gene, coatomer complex deltaCOP gene, nuclear shuttle protein interactor NSI gene, and genes homologous thereto. The mutation in such a solanaceous plant either inhibits the expression of the mutated gene or makes a protein encoded by the mutated gene to be non-functional for the virus, and the solanaceous plant has virus resistance against the above-mentioned virus.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel method of controlling TYLCV whereby the infection cycle of TYLCV can be broken. The present invention provides a novel virus that is not transmitted by an insect vector as a tomato yellow leaf curl virus. The present invention also provides a method of controlling a tomato yellow leaf curl disease and a method of preventing transmission of a yellow leaf curl virus by using a tomato yellow leaf curl virus not transmitted by an insect vector.
