This project aims to combat RNA viruses in crops by using genome editing to target host factors involved in viral infection. By understanding how viruses move between plant cells, the project seeks to develop new resistant crop varieties, enhancing agricultural sustainability and food security.
Viruses cause epidemics on all major crops of agronomic importance, representing a serious threat to agriculture and global food security.
Among plant viruses, those induced by RNA are of particular concern due to their overrepresentation and the lack of effective countermeasures.
As obligate intracellular parasites, their control still relies on an excessive application of pesticides against virus vectors and preventive actions consisting mainly in the detection and removal of infected plants.…
