Findings show GmCCS-GmCSN5B-GmVTC1 pathway modulates SMV resistance in soybean, highlighting its potential for crop improvement.

The research aims to understand the role of the GmCCS-GmCSN5B-GmVTC1 pathway in soybean resistance to soybean mosaic virus (SMV).
Utilized GmCCS as bait to screen a soybean cDNA library.
Conducted quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) on resistant and susceptible soybean varieties post-SMV inoculation.
Employed BPMV-induced gene silencing to knock down GmCSN5B and assess SMV resistance.
GmCSN5B showed differential expression between SMV-resistant and susceptible soybean varieties.
Knockdown of GmCSN5B enhanced resistance to SMV in plants compared to controls.
Interaction between GmCSN5B and GmVTC1 was established, linking them to ascorbic acid synthesis.
