Abstract:
Recombinant DNA constructs comprising a DNA sequence under expression control of a promoter and a terminator functioning in plants, which DNA sequence encodes an RNA sequence selected from the group consisting of:(a) the S RNA nucleotide sequence from 1 to 2915 depicted in FIG. 4;(b) the S RNA nucleotide sequence from 2763 to 1987 depicted in FIG. 4;(c) the L RNA nucleotide sequence depicted in FIG. 6B;(d) an RNA nucleotide sequence, encoding for a tospovirus protein, in which one or more codons of the RNA sequence of (a), (b) or (c) have been replaced by codons coding for the same amino acid or termination signal; and(e) an RNA sequence complementary to the RNA sequence of (a) (b), (c) or (d).
