Host induced gene silencing, an emerging science to engineer crop resistance against harmful plant pathogens

2017-12-01

Abstract excerpt

RNA interference (RNAi) has rapidly progressed as one of the most important genetic tools to understand gene function. Moreover, conservation of the RNAi machinery and pathway across kingdoms enabled plant biotechnologists to engineer disease resistance in crop plants. This is achieved by transforming the plant with double stranded RNA constructs targeting vital pathogen genes or host susceptibility genes. The dou...
