The amino terminus of the coat protein of Turnip crinkle virus is the AVR factor recognized by resistant arabidopsis.

We have isolated three naturally occurring strains of Turnip crinkle virus (TCV) that break resistance in Di-17 Arabidopsis. Two mutations in the N terminus of the TCV coat protein, D4N and P5S, were shown to confer this phenotype. Thus, this region of the coat protein is involved in eliciting resistance responses in Arabidopsis.
