The deployment of virus-resistant plant crops often leads to the emergence of resistance-breaking pathogens that suppress the yield benefit provided by the resistance. Although breakdowns are well understood for qualitative resistance to crop pests, especially for viruses, they remain to be studied in the case of quantitative resistance....

Infection of plants by viruses is a complex process involving several steps: inoculation into plant cells, replication in inoculated cells and plant colonization. The success of the different steps depends, in part, on the viral effective population size (Ne), defined as the number of individuals passing their genes to the next generation....

Infection of plants by viruses is a complex process that involves several steps: inoculation into plant cells, replication in inoculated cells, cell-to-cell movement during leaf colonization and long-distance movement during systemic infection. The success of the different steps is conditioned by the effective viral population size (Ne) defined...
