    High-throughput analysis of gene function under multiple abiotic stresses using leaf disks from silenced plants

    The high throughputness and affordability of “omics” technologies is leading to the identification of a large number of abiotic stress genes, with many of them responsive to multiple stresses. In vivo functional characterization of these genes under multiple stresses is challenging but essential to develop resilient crops for the changing climate. Here we describe a high-throughput Virus-Induced Gene Silencing-based methodology for functional analysis of genes under multiple abiotic stresses using leaf disks. Leaves with maximal silencing, which is localized to only a few leaves and to a short period, can be effectively used for multiple stress imposition and stress affect quantification.
