Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Expression of artificial microRNA targeting ATP binding domain of AC1 in transgenic tomato confers resistance to Tomato leaf curl disease without impacting the yield of tomato. Tomato curl leaf disease caused by Tomato leaf curl virus (ToLCV) is a key constraint to tomato cultivation worldwide. Engineering transgenic plants expressing artificial microRNAs (amiRNAs) against the AC1 gene of Tomato leaf...
