Virus Inducible Switch
This invention describes a novel platform to control expression of specific plant genes with viruses.
Background:
When many plants are challenged with a viral infection, one of the primary defense mechanisms they have evolved is to deploy the use of plant RNA silencing pathways to control gene expression. Likewise, viruses have co-evolved to evade...
