Effects of Host Plant Development and Genetic Determinants on the Long-Distance Movement of Cauliflower Mosaic Virus in Arabidopsis

During systemic infections, viruses move long distances through the plant vascular system. The long-distance movement of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) in Arabidopsis has been examined using a whole plant in situ hybridization technique called plant skeleton hybridization. CaMV moves long distance through the phloem largely following the flow of photoassimilates from source to sink leaves. During the course of plant development, sink-source relationships change and the region of the plant that CaMV can invade is progressively reduced. In Arabidopsis, we have found that conditions that influence the rate of plant development dramatically impact the long-distance movement of CaMV, because under normal conditions the rate of plant development is closely matched to the kinetics of virus movement. Ecotypes and mutants of Arabidopsis that flower early show a form of resistance to systemic CaMV infection, which we call "developmental resistance." Developmental resistance results from the fact that the rosette leaves mature early in the life of an early flowering plant and become inaccessible to virus. On the other hand, if the development of early flowering plants is retarded by suboptimal growth conditions, inoculated plants appear more susceptible to the virus and systemic infections become more widespread. We have found that other Arabidopsis ecotypes, such as Enkheim-2 (En-2), show another form of resistance to virus movement that is not based on developmental or growth conditions. The virus resistance in ecotype En-2 is largely conditioned by a dominant trait at a single locus.
