A
$DNA$ interference
B
$RNA$ interference
C
$RNA$ initiation
D
$DNA$ initiation
Solution
$RNA$ interference.
Nematodes is a group of organisms, which parasites a large number of plants and animals including human being. One of the common nematodes Meloidegyne incognitia infects the roots of tobacco plants and causes a great loss by causing reduction in yield.
This infestation was prevented by using a novel strategy, which was based on the process of $RNA$ interference $(RNAi)$. $RNA$ is powerful reverse genetic tool to study gene function
