ABSTRACT
RNA silencing (also known as gene silencing) is an evolutionary conserved mechanism that is involved in regulating gene expression, suppressing mobile elements, and defensing virus infection. RNA silencing is triggered by double-stranded RNA via Dicer or Dicer-like riboendonucleases. DsRNAs are also the replication intermediates of all RNA viruses; as a result, plant RNA viruses are ideal candidates to induce RNA silencing. A large body of plant viruses have been modified into vectors for RNA silencing in varied plant species. Here, we described a simple, time-saving, and operable system for gene function and genetic breeding study of potato and Nicotiana benthamiana using a potato mop-top (MPTV)-based vector.
