Research and Application of Virus-induced Gene Silencing(VIGS)Tech-nology in Tomato Gene Function
Virus induced gene silencing(VIGS)is a technology that relies on RNA interference(RNAi)to rapidly degrade target genes to analyze their functions.RNAi is part of the natural defense mechanism in plants.Compared with other plant gene function research methods,VIGS has several advantages,for example fast operation and no need for genetic modification.Tomato is an important economic vegetable with fruit in China and even all of the world,and it is becoming the leading industry of modern vegetables.It has gradually become a model plant in the study of gene function of bulk vegetables.This study summarizes the research and application of VIGS technology in tomato gene function in recent years,and will provide reference for the gene function research of Solanaceae vegetables and even horticultural plant,accelerating the gene function research of vegetable and even horticultural crop.
