Characterization of a Brome mosaic virus Strain and Its Use as a Vector for Gene Silencing in Monocotyledonous Hosts

Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is used to analyze gene function in dicotyledonous plants but less so in monocotyledonous plants (particularly rice and corn), partially due to the limited number of virus expression vectors available. Here, we report the cloning and modification for VIGS of a vir...
