titleOfInvention | Compositions and methods for modulating gene expression in plants |
abstract | Compositions and methods for modulating gene expression in plants are provided. The methods comprise the use of a gene silencer (amplicon) in combination with an enhancer sequence (suppressor of co-suppression). Amplicons comprise a targeting sequence corresponding to the gene of interest, the target gene. The amplicon will direct gene silencing against a sequence with homology to the targeting sequence, (the target sequence). The amplicon may optionally comprise a promoter and a sequence that corresponds to at least a part of a viral genome. Enhancers act to prevent post-transcriptional gene silencing and to increase the expression of a target gene. Generally, enhancers comprise proteins encoded by the viral genome that act to suppress gene silencing. In combination, the amplicon and suppressor sequences can be used to boost expression of target sequences in plants. Transformed plants, plant cells, tissues, and seeds are provided. Such transformed plants, cells, tissues, and seeds exhibit an enhanced expression of target genes or sequences. A variety of promoters may be used in the constructs of the invention depending on the desired outcome. Tissue-preferred promoters, inducible promoters, developmental promoters, and the like can be used to direct expression of the target sequence in specific tissues and developmental stages of the plant. |
