Abstract
The method of virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) based on posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is a promising new method for the study of plant gene functions. In the current review we analyzed works on the development and improvement of this method, including the creation of new viral constructions for different plant species, the search for new reporter genes for the control of VIGS efficiency, and the development of new efficient methods of infection.Entities:
