Abstract
The common phenotype of different resistant plants are described and individual examples are reviewed in order to compare and contrast the characteristics of resistance to different viruses. The limited number of experiments that explore the fundamental basis of resistance are described. Ideas are presented for the types of experiments that are needed to more completely understand the mechanisms of resistance and to extend the resistance to other important plant viruses. Topics covered include: definition; strategy to create coat protein-mediated resistance; phenotype of coat protein-mediated resistance; examples of coat protein-mediated resistance; understanding the mechanisms of CP-mediated resistance; field tests of coat protein-mediated resistance; and conclusions and future directions
