Abstract

A natural mild isolate of Zucchini yellow mosaic virus was found to contain a mutation in the helper component (HC-Pro) within a conserved motif, “CDNQLD”, located 12 residues downstream from the “FRNK” motif involved in symptom severity. Introducing the mutation in an infectious cDNA clone of ZYMV resulted in an almost complete absence of symptoms, although viral accumulation was only partially reduced. The FRNK(X)12CDNQLD sequence might be part of a larger motif that is conserved in potyviruses and plays a role in symptomatology and/or silencing inhibition.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
