Abstract
The present invention concerns a method for inducing resistance to a virus comprising a TGB3 sequence with the proviso that it is not the potato virus X, into a plant cell or plant, comprising the following steps: preparing a nucleic acid construct comprising a nucleic acid sequence corresponding to at least 70% of the nucleic acid sequence of TGB3 of said virus or its corresponding cDNA, being operably linked to one or more regulatory sequence(s) active in a plant, transforming a plant cell with the nucleic acid construct, and possibly regenerating a transgenic plant from the transformed plant cell. The present invention is also related to the plant obtained.
