Chloroplast-related host proteins interact with NIb and NIa-Pro of soybeans mosaic virus and induce resistance in the susceptible cultivar.

ABSTRACT: To gain a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in viral infection and the corresponding plant resistance responses, it is essential to investigate the interactions between viral and host proteins. In the case of viral infections in plants, a significant portion of the affected gene products are closely associated with chloroplasts and photosynthesis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interplay between the virus and host chloroplast proteins during replication remain poorly understood. In our previous study, we made an interesting discovery regarding soybean mosaic virus (SMV) infection in resistant and susceptible soybean cultivars. We found that the photosystem I (PSI) subunit (PSaC) and ATP synthase subunit α (ATPsyn-α) genes were up-regulated in the r
