Andrew O JacksonProfessorPh.D. University of Manitoba , 1970Department of Plant & Microbial Biology, College of Natural Resources, University of California, Berkeley. The Jackson Lab researches how viruses elicit plant diseases, and devises mechanisms for disease control in transgenic plants. We work with three viruses: a plus sense monopartite RNA virus, tomato bushy stunt virus; a plus sense tripartite RNA virus,barley stripe mosaic virus; and a minus strand plantrhabdovirus, sonchus yellow net virus. We use genetic and biochemical analysis to investigate replication and movementof these viruses and to determine virus-host interactions culminating in disease.
