Abstract

Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a powerful method to study gene function in plants. It is based on plant defense mechanisms against viral gene replication and allows high-throughput silencing of genes of interest. However, it can also elicit suppression of off-target genes with sequence simil...
