Ph.D. thesis: Mechanism of tolerance in Arabidopsis to Cucumber mosaic viruses. Synopsis: In my doctoral research, I attempted to deduce the mechanism of tolerance to Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh (Arabidopsis). Firstly, we analysed the specificity of defense responses to viral infections in Arabidopsis. Following which, we analysed the role of flowering genes in the tolerance of Arabidopsis to CMV. Lastly, we monitored the level and pattern of flowering gene expression of two major flowering promotors and repressors in a time-course experiment in non-tolerant Landsberg erecta and tolerant Llagostera genotypes. |
