Perspicacious insights into plant-virus-vector interactions applying omics

Abstract

Transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors is facilitated by unequivocal tri-partite interactions among host plants, viruses, and associated vectors. The advent of next-generation sequencing including whole genome sequencing, RNA/small RNA sequencing, proteomics, and metabolomics aided in elucidating the molecular mechanisms involved in virus transmission by insect vectors and infection in host plants.
