Commentary Plant gene silencing regularized
Two surprising and potentially useful phenomena of transgenic plants originated from two distinct lines of research but may converge in underlying mechanism or mechanisms (1–3). Plant transformation technology, the staple of the crop biotechnology industry, overcomes the species barrier and allows introduction into plants of genes from other plant species, genes from species of other kingdoms, ...
متن کاملTomato and Tobacco Phytoene Desaturase Gene Silencing by Virus-Induced Gene Silencing (VIGS) Technique
Background and Aims: Virus-Induced Gene Silencing (VIGS) is a virus vector technology that exploits antiviral defense mechanism. By infecting plants with recombinant viruses containing host genes inserted in the viral genome, VIGS achieves the RNA silencing process. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) and tobacco (Nicotiana be...
متن کاملSugarcane Mosaic Virus-Based Gene Silencing in Nicotiana benthamiana
Background:Potyvirus-based virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is used for knocking down the expression of a target gene in numerous plant species. Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) is a monopartite, positive single strand RNA virus. Objectives:pBINTRA6 vector was modified by inserting a gene segment of SCMV in place of Tobacco rattle virus (TRV) genome part 1 (TRV1 or RNA1)...
متن کاملEffectively organ-specific virus induced gene silencing in tomato plant
Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a valuable tool for identification and characterization of genes function. To improve the efficiency of VIGS in different organ, we developed an organ-specific VIGS that could be applied to tomato (Solanum lycopersicum cv Micro Tom) leaves, flowers and fruits respectively. With phytoene desaturase (PDS) as a reporter gene, almost up to 100% of efficiency o...
متن کاملVirus-induced silencing of a plant cellulose synthase gene.
Specific cDNA fragments corresponding to putative cellulose synthase genes (CesA) were inserted into potato virus X vectors for functional analysis in Nicotiana benthamiana by using virus-induced gene silencing. Plants infected with one group of cDNAs had much shorter internode lengths, small leaves, and a "dwarf" phenotype. Consistent with a loss of cell wall cellulose, abnormally large and in...
