Viral induced gene silencing (VIGS) via Agro-drench method on S. hermonthica . a, b, c, d, and e are plants agro-drenched with Agrobacterium strain GV3101 with TRV2- PDS (GV3101/TRV2-PDS), and mixed in 1:1 ratio with GV3101 containing TRV1 empty vectors (GV3101/TRV2), in days 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 post agro-drench respectively; f, g, h, i and j were agro-drenched with GV3101 vectors containingTRV1 empty (GV3101/TRV1) in days 1,7,14,21 and 28 respectively. k, l, m, n, and o plants were agro-drenched with GV3101 only, while p, q, r, s and t were only watered in days 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 after agro-drench respectively. All scale bars represent 5 cm.
