Sequencing eukariotic genomes generates a large amount of sequence data. There is an urgent need for developing fast and effective methods of functional analysis of newly discovered genes. Postranscriptional gene silencing can be applied for functional genomics of plants and animals. A large scale analysis of C. elegans genome has been already performed. For mammals and plants, current work focuses on constructing high-throughput silencing vectors.
