Abstract
Salicylic acid (SA) is a natural signal in plants that induces a general resistance to plant pathogens. Its effects on bacterial and fungal plant pathogens is fairly well understood. Its effects on viral infections are not. The aim of this grant is to determine which aspect(s) of the viral cycle are affected by SA.
