e2“Previously, sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) was developed as a vector for transient expression of heterologous genes in Zea mays (maize)”
e6“which resulted in elevated expression of two defense‐related genes, Maize Proteinase Inhibitor ( MPI ) and Ribosome Inactivating Protein 2 ( RIP2 )”
e7“we silenced expression of ZmCYP94B1”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation SCMV can be applied for gene silencing (VIGS) of endogenous maize genes.
- Method / resource Antisense VIGS constructs targeting maize phytoene desaturase reduced gene expression more than sense constructs.
- Intervention effect Expression silencing by SCMV VIGS was efficient 2, 3 and 4 weeks after infection in maize.
- Intervention effect At week 5 after SCMV infection, expression of Les22 and Ij1 was no longer significantly reduced compared with control plants.
- Intervention effect Silencing ZmCYP94B1 and ZmJIH1 increased maize resistance to Spodoptera frugiperda.
- Intervention effect Silencing ZmCYP94B1 and ZmJIH1 increased maize resistance to Schistocerca americana.
- Intervention effect Silencing ZmCYP94B1 and ZmJIH1 increased maize resistance to Rhopalosiphum maidis.
- Intervention effect Silencing both ZmCYP94B1 and ZmJIH1 gave no additive effect on maize resistance.
