Auxin response factors (ARFs) differentially regulate rice antiviral immune response against rice dwarf virus.

abstract：:Exosomes can transfer genetic materials between cells. Their roles in viral infections are beginning to be appreciated. Researches have shown that exosomes released from virus-infected cells contain a variety of viral and host cellular factors that are able to modulate recipient's cellular response and result in produ...
