The systemic spread of viruses in plants requires successful viral cell-to-cell movement through plasmodesmata (PD). Viral movement proteins (MPs) interact with cellular proteins to modify and utilize host transport routes. Broad bean wilt virus 2 (BBWV2) moves from cell to cell as a virion through the PD gated by VP37, the MP of BBWV2. However, the host proteins that function in the cell-to-cell movement of BBWV2 remain unclear. In this study, we identified cellular heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) as an interacting partner of VP37. The interaction between HSP90 and VP37 was assessed using the yeast two-hybrid assay, co-immunoprecipitation, and bimolecular fluorescence complementation. Tobacco rattle virus-based virus-induced gene silencing analysis revealed that
