Construction of effective inverted repeat silencing constructs using sodium bisulfite treatment coupled with strand-specific PCR

RNA silencing has been exploited to produce transgenic plants with resistance to viral pathogens via posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS). In some cases, this technology is difficult to apply due to the instability of inverted repeat (IR) constructs during cloning and plant transformation. Alth...
