Plant Gene Silencing Methods and Protocols
“Plant Gene Silencing Methods and Protocols” by Kirankumar S. Mysore, published by Springer New York on March 5, 2015, is a detailed resource comprising 307 pages in English. This volume offers a comprehensive review of various gene silencing methodologies and their applications, including a historical overview of gene silencing mechanisms in plants, vectors, and strategies available for plant gene silencing.
Readers will find methodology for virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) across different plant species, insights into plant stress responses, and techniques such as miRNA identification and DNA interference. The book also covers host-induced gene silencing and the use of artificial miRNAs, along with high throughput RNAi. Written in the established “Methods of Molecular Biology” series format, it includes introductions to topics, lists of necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step laboratory protocols, and troubleshooting tips, making it a practical guide for scientists aiming to understand the functional relevance of target genes in commercial plant varieties.
