This is important, especially in select plants, such as the pepper plant, that are recalcitrant to Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Although VIGS in plants has been widely employed as a powerful tool for functional genomics, scattering phenotypic effects by uneven gene silencing has been implemented in order to overcome challenges in experiments with fruit tissues %K VIGS %K Pepper %K TRV %K Reporter system %K An2 %K Anthocyanin %K Capsaicinoid %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5209810/
