RNA-mediated epigenetic modifications of an endogenous gene targeted by a viral vector—a potent gene silencing system to produce a plant that does not carry a transgene but has altered traits

Nucleotide-sequence-specific interactions mediated by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can induce gene silencing. Gene silencing through transcriptional repression can be induced by dsRNA targeted to a gene promoter. However, until recently, no plant has been produced that harbors an endogenous gene that...
