Abstract

Cultivated plants all over the world are exposed to harmful effects from viral diseases, which annually causes significant economic damage to agriculture. RNA interference is one of the natural mechanisms of controlling viral infections by plants. In this review, examples of bio- technologies application for RNA interference induction that can be applied in the creation of agriculturally valuable plants that are resistant to various viral diseases are discussed.
