The latter is achieved through protein degradation machinerysuch as the ubiquitin proteasome pathway (UPS). The UPS plays a central role in maintaining cellular physiologyand orchestrating plant response to stresses responses. The UPS regulates all stages of defense response from pathogenperception to mounting defense response, this make the UPS a suitable candidate for host manipulation. Virusesare obligatory intracellular pathogens and master of manipulating host defense machinery for successful infectionand spread. Several reports suggest a dynamic interaction between the host UPS machinery and viruses. This reviewfocuses on our current understanding of the involvement of UPS in defense against plant viruses and how viruseshave evolved mechanisms to counter and exploit UPS machinery for their advantage.展开更多
