In spray-induced gene silencing (SIGS), exogenous double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA) are used to efficiently regulate target genes via plant surface treatment. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of specific exogenous dsRNAs on silencing different regions (promoter, protein-coding and intron) of the target tomato gene, encoding an R3-type MYB repressor of anthocyanin biosynthesis.
