Simultaneous gene expression and multi-gene silencing in Zea mays using maize dwarf mosaic virus

Abstract Background Maize dwarf mosaic virus (MDMV), a member of the genus Potyvirus, infects maize and is non-persistently transmitted by aphids. Several plant viruses have been developed as tools for gene expression and gene silencing in plants. The capacity of MDMV for both gene expression and ge...
