"Plant Biology Starter Grant: Plant Virus Replication"

9316007 Kao该奖项为植物和植物原生质体工作所需的设备提供资金。将继续研究雀麦花叶病毒复制蛋白的结构和功能的生化特征，并将开始研究单链DNA双病毒的复制。这项研究的预期结果将促进我们目前对植物病毒复制机制的理解。更好地了解这些过程将有助于制定更好的减少植物病害战略，并提供对其他动植物病毒工作原理的见解。* * *

9316007 Kao This award provides funds for equipment needed for plant and plant protoplast work. Work will continue on biochemical characterization of structure and function of brome mosaic virus replication proteins and will begin on studies of the replication of the single-stranded DNA geminiviruses. %%% Anticipated results from this research should advance our current understanding of the replication mechanism of plant viruses. A better understanding of these processes will allow for better strategies in plant disease reduction as well as providing insight on the workings of other plant and animal viruses. ***
