Title:
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR ANALYSIS OF PLANT GENE FUNCTION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004113573
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides novel methods and compositions for modulating gene function in plants. In particular, the invention provides methods and compositions that allow, for the first time, virus-induced gene silencing in rice. The invention is significant in that prior techniques were not available for rice and because of the major importance of rice to agriculture. The invention therefore provides techniques for the analysis of gene function in rice, as well as in other monocotyledonous species and dicotyledonous plant species.
