Transient expression of homologous hairpin RNA interferes with PVY transmission by aphids

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Hairpin RNAs have been used to confer resistance to viruses in plants through RNA silencing. However, it has not been demonstrated that RNA silencing was effective against inoculation by aphids of non-persistently transmitted viruses, the major route of plant vir...
