This study shows that ABSCISIC ACID-INSENSITIVE MUTANT 5 (ABI5), a bZIP transcription factor, which plays an important role in the abscisic acid (ABA)-arrested seed germination, is robustly associated with the floral transition in Arabidopsis. Under long-day conditions, overexpression of ABI5 could ...

Abstract:
... Mycoviruses are thought not to be infectious as free particles and to lack an extracellular phase in their life cycles, limiting the broad use of hypovirulence-associated mycoviruses in controlling fungal disease. Here, we demonstrate that purified particles of a DNA mycovirus, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum hypovirulence-associated DNA virus 1 (SsHADV-1), are infectious when applied extracellularly to ...
