An alternative strategy consists of silencing the candidate virulence gene by making use of the phenomenon of RNA interference (RNAi), adding features such as the possibility of generating knock-down mutants with variable expression levels of the target gene or the ability to simultaneously target multiple genes. Two different approaches have been assayed to generate knock-down mutants by RNAi in the phytopathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea. In the first one, the single nitrate reductase gene in the B. cinerea genome, niaD, was silenced by transformation with a construct containing a 400-bp niaD fragment between two opposing promoters, so that a dsRNA fragment was generated. As an alternative approach, the mgfp4 gene coding for the green fluorescent protein (GFP) was silenced by transforming two different GFP-expressing strains of B. cinerea with a hairpin RNA (hpRNA)-expressing vector, containing two inverted copies of a 300-bp mgfp4 fragment separated by a spacer DNA. While the opposing dual-promoter strategy produced gene silencing in about half of the transformants assayed, the efficiency of the hpRNA-expressing vector was higher, inducing a decrease in GFP levels in more than 90 % of transformants. The degree of silencing achieved was high with both methods, but the hpRNA strategy resulted in a higher proportion of strongly silenced transformants.Bioquímica, Microbiología, Biología Celular y Genética202520252014info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://riull.ull.es/xmlui/handle/915/41766reponame:RIULL.
