Obiettivo

This proposal seeks to exploit plant-specific gene silencing mechanisms to develop new strategies for the prevention of transgenic silencing and for the controlled use of gene silencing for the inactivation of endogenous genes and gene families in crop plants. The project combines novel basic research elements with the application of these results in modern agriculture for the benefit of the consumer and European industry, as it is expected to develop strategies for a safe and reliable use of a commercially highly important technology.
