Abstract

Transformed Beta vulgaris L. suspension cultures were obtained after cocultivation of sugarbeet cells with Agrobacterium tumefaciens harbouring a binary vector containing the coat protein gene of beet necrotic yellow vein virus inserted between the kanamycin resistance gene and a ß-glucuronidase reporter gene. Protoplasts were isolated both from untransformed cells, and from transformed cells expressing the viral coat protein, and both were then infected with beet necrotic yellow vein virus. Comparison of the levels of infectivity shows that the expression of the coat protein gene in sugarbeet protoplasts mediates high levels of protection against infection by beet necrotic yellow vein virus.
