Research Abstract |
The spreading of RNA silencing occurred from 5' to 3' direction along the transgene, but not vice versa in grafted scions of transgenic Nicotiana benthamiana carrying the entire of coat protein gene (CP) of Sweet potato feathery mottle virus (SPFMV) onto the silenced rootstocks with target specificity in 3' or 5' region of SPFMC CP. The same result was obtained by crossing. The transgene methylation was induced by crossing but not by grafting. RNA silencing through grafting was also induced in non transgenic scions grafted on endogenous gene silenced rootstocks of N. tobacum.
