Silencing of mRNA has been used in producing transgenic plant resistant to
1 Bollworm
2 Nematode
3 Bacterial blight
4 White rusts
Explanation:
A Nematode called Meloidogyne incognita infects root of tobacco plants and causes reduction in yield. RNA interference is a method involves silencing of a specific mRNA. Using Agrobacterium vectors nematode specific genes were introduced into host plant. These two RNA's being complementary to each other formed double stranded (dsRNA) that initiated RNAi and this silenced specific mRNA of the nematode. Parasite could not survive in transgenic host expressing specific interfering RNA. Hence the transgenic plant gets protected from the parasite.
