RNA interference is a technique used for making tobacco plants resistant against pest like nematodeMeloidegyne incognitia. In this technique, which of the following process is inhibited?
Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
Yield in tobacco plants is reduced due to infection of a nematodeMeloidegyne incognitia. RNA interference (RNAi) is a process of silencing a specific mRNA by making complementary dsRNA molecule. The complementary RNA molecule will have sequence complementary to mRNA sequence, enabling formation of dsRNA. This way the protein will not be translated from the transcribed mRNA.
