Abstract excerpt
The turnip crinkle virus-based vector TCV-GFP Delta CP had been devised previously to study cell-to-cell and long-distance spread of virus-induced RNA silencing. TCV-GFP Delta CP, which had been constructed by replacing the coat protein (CP) gene with a green fluorescent protein (GFP) coding sequence, was able to induce RNA silencing in single epidermal cells, from which RNA silencing spread from cell-to-cell....
