Gene Silencing in Plants at GPB 2027

Part of the GPB 2027 scientific programme · Village Hotel Changi, Singapore · March 18–20, 2027

About the Gene Silencing in Plants Session

Gene silencing in plants is a process that involves the regulation of gene expression, leading to the suppression of specific genes. This phenomenon can occur naturally through mechanisms such as RNA interference (RNAi) and can also be harnessed through biotechnological approaches. By introducing small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) or antisense RNAs, researchers can target and silence undesirable genes, which is particularly useful in developing disease-resistant or stress-tolerant crops. Gene silencing techniques have significant implications for agricultural biotechnology, enabling the development of crops with improved traits without altering the overall genetic makeup. This precision in gene regulation holds promise for sustainable agriculture and food security.
