Abstract: The post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) by the suppression of homologous double-stranded RNA is called RNA interference (RNAi) or PTGS/ RNAi.The phonmeon, mechanism, models, involved factors including enzymes, genes, initiator and effectors, and utilizations in the functions of genome, the regulations of gene expression in time and space and the crop’s improvement of the PTGS/ RNAi were described in this article.
