ABSTRACT:
An expression system and method for using the same in plants to suppress gene expression, the system including a constitutive promoter element from a tRNA gene and an antisense strand DNA fused to the promoter element for being co-transcribed with the promoter element by an RNA polymerase III to suppress expression of a gene.
