A virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) system for functional genomics in the parasitic plant Striga hermonthica
BACKGROUND: Striga hermonthica is a hemiparasitic weed that infects cereals in Sub Sahara Africa (SSA) resulting in up to 100% grain yield loss. This significant loss in grain yields is a major contributor to food insecurity and poverty in the region. Current strategies to control the parasite are c...
