Plant genomes are the source of large numbers of small RNAs, generated via a variety of genetically separable pathways. Several of these pathways converge in the production of …
RNA silencing (RNAi) has a well-established role in anti-viral immunity in plants. The destructive eukaryotic pathogen Phytophthora encodes suppressors of RNAi (PSRs), which …

Since its discovery in the late 1970s, the ubiquitin proteasome pathway appears to be omnipresent in many research fields. Although originally discovered in animals, the pathway …
Dicer, a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-specific endoribonuclease, plays an essential role in triggering both transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene silencing in eukaryotes by …

While RNA silencing is a potent antiviral defense in plants, well-adapted plant viruses are known to encode suppressors of RNA silencing (VSR) that can neutralize the effectiveness …
Dicer, Argonaute and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase form the core components to trigger RNA silencing. Although tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a dicotyledon model plant, no …

The RNA interference pathway (RNAi) is executed by two core enzymes, Dicer and Argonaute, for accomplishing a tailored transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene …
Small RNAs (sRNA) are reported to play pivotal roles in the epigenetic and post- transcriptional regulation of gene expression during growth, development, and stress …
RNA silencing is one of the main defense mechanisms employed by plants to fight viruses. In change, viruses have evolved silencing suppressor proteins to neutralize antiviral …
