Induction of Promoter DNA Methylation Upon High-Pressure Spraying of Double-Stranded RNA in Plants
Exogenous application of RNA molecules is a potent method to trigger RNA interference (RNAi) in plants in a transgene-free manner. So far, all exogenous RNAi (exo-RNAi) applications have aimed to trigger mRNA degradation of a given target. However, the issue of concomitant epigenetic changes was nev...
