Gene Knockdown in Plants
Gene knockout refers to the genetic of making inoperative one of a given organism’s genes (Richmond, 2001). In order to know more about genes that have been sequenced, knocking out is normally done. Close comparison carried out between a normal and a gene knocked down organism would definitely make out a difference (Ralf, 2008). Through such comparisons, the difference would enable the observer to know which genes are knocked out. Knocking down is achievable through combination of vast techniques. Firstly, a plasmid is placed in test tube together with other DNA construct followed by a cell culture proceeding. DNA construct process genetically transfects the ...
