Dynamics of the VIGS-Mediated Chimeric Silencing of the Nicotiana benthamiana ChlH Gene and of the Tobacco Mosaic Virus Vector
The ChlH gene, encoding for the H subunit of the magnesium chelatase enzyme, was silenced in Nicotiana bentahamiana plants by virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS), using tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) expression vector. Strong silencing of the ChlH target gene was initiated only in the apical tissues, in...
