Heterologous expression of plant virus genes that suppress post-transcriptional gene silencing results in suppression of RNA interference in <it>Drosophila </it>cells

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>RNA interference (RNAi) in animals and post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) in plants are related phenomena whose functions include the developmental regulation of gene expression and protection from transposable elements and v...
