ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods and means for the identification of genes involved in the determination of a plant trait or for the identification encoded by a nucleic acid comprising a determined nucleotide sequence. The invention also provides kits comprising viral RNA vectors derived from satellite viruses and corresponding helper viruses for the introduction of inhibitory RNA into plant cells and plants.
