A systemic increase in the recombination frequency upon local infection of Arabidopsis thaliana plants with oilseed rape mosaic virus depends on plant age, the initial inoculum concentration and the time for virus replication
In the past, we showed that local infection of tobacco leaves with either Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) or Oilseed rape mosaic virus (ORMV) resulted in a systemic increase in the homologous recombination frequency (HRF).Later on, we showed that a similar phenomenon occurs in Car Stereo Arabidopsis thaliana plants infected with ORMV.Here, we tested whe
