Improve small RNA-mediated gene silencing in soybean by using GmFAD3 as a test model
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)The primary goal of this work is to improve RNAi technology as a tool to analyze gene function and manipulate commercial traits in soybean. We have developed two RNAi approaches towards the silencing of soybean genes: one ...
