The aim of Plant Virology Protocols is to provide a source of
infor- tion to guide the reader through the wide range of methods
involved in gen- ating transgenic plants that are resistant to
plant viruses. To this end, we have commissioned a wide-ranging
list of chapters that will cover the methods required for: plant
virus isolation; RNA extraction; cloning coat p- tein genes;
introduction of the coat protein gene into the plant genome; and
testing transgenic plants for resistance. The book then moves on to
treatments of the mechanisms of resistance, the problems
encountered with field testing, and key ethical issues surrounding
transgenic technology. Although Plant Virology Protocols deals with
the cloning and expression of the coat protein gene, the techniques
described can be equally applied to other viral genes and
nucleotide sequences, many of which have also been shown to afford
protection when introduced into plants. The coat protein has,
however, been the most widely applied, and as such has been
selected to illustrate the techniques involved. Plant Virology
Protocols has been divided into six major sections, c- taining 55
chapters in total.
