A meta-analysis reveals the commonalities and differences in Arabidopsis thaliana response to different viral pathogens.

Understanding the mechanisms by which plants trigger host defenses in response to viruses has been a challenging problem owing to the multiplicity of factors and complexity of interactions involved. The advent of genomic techniques, however, has opened the possibility to grasp a global picture of th...
