Mitigation of Soybean Mosaic Virus Using an Effcient Molecular Approach

Abstract

Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) is damaging the soybean crop around the globe and significantly affecting seed quality and reducing soybean seed production. Interplay among resistance protein (R-protein) and SMV effector proteins generates resistance when virus first infects soybean plants with a soybean resistance protein. A novel SMV effector is recognized by the R-protein present in resistant cultivars. When extreme silent and ordinary resistant strains come into contact, they both exhibit hypersensitivity responses as well as the production of salicylic acid and reactive oxygen species. Since the SMV-soybean pathogen system is very complicated, it has emerged as a suitable model for the study of gene-for-gene resistance mechanisms. Here, we will look at the significant improvements in our knowledge of the soybean-SMV arms race, as well as the remaining challenges. We are also interested in SMV infection routes and how soybeans detect and respond to the virus since they will help us understand more about it. The evaluation of resistance genes and the research of soybean R-genes are also explored in detail. As a result of extensive study, we have gained a better knowledge about the SMV-encoded proteins which play a crucial role in SMV pathogenicity and transmission.
