The maize mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase kinase gene ZmMAPKKK45 is associated with multiple disease resistance

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Southern leaf blight (SLB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Cochliobolus heterostrophus, is a major foliar disease of maize (Zea mays) world‐wide. A genome‐wide association study was performed to dissect the genetic basis of SLB resistance in maize. Functional validation was performed using mutant and transgenic analyses.

High‐Efficiency and Eco‐Friendly Management of Multiple Fungal Diseases by a Novel Carbon Dots sCDP Delivered RNA Nano‐Pesticides

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT RNA‐based pesticides represent a transformative approach in agricultural disease management, offering an environmentally sustainable alternative to conventional chemical fungicides. However, key challenges such as rapid RNA degradation in the environment and inefficient uptake hinder widespread adoption.

Argonaute2 and Argonaute4 Involved in the Pathogenesis of Kawasaki Disease via mRNA Expression Profiles

Children
Background: Argonautes (AGOs) are a type of protein that degrade specific messenger RNAs, consequently reducing the expression of a specific gene. These proteins consist of small, single-stranded RNA or DNA and may provide a route for detecting and ...

MicroRNA‐Induced Gene Silencing (MIGS): A Tool for Multi‐Gene Silencing and Targeting Viruses in Plants

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since its discovery, RNA interference (RNAi, also known as gene silencing) has been a key tool to downregulate gene expression in plants for a range of applications, including protection against viruses. Many of these applications require the silencing of multiple genes concomitantly.

Argonaute Proteins: From Structure to Function in Development and Pathological Cell Fate Determination

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
The highly conserved Argonaute protein family members play a central role in the regulation of gene expression networks, orchestrating the establishment and the maintenance of cell identity throughout the entire life cycle, as well as in several human ...

Differentiation among the ARGONAUTES [PDF]

The Plant Cell, 2010
Noncoding RNAs, including small RNAs (sRNAs), act in an astonishing variety of cellular processes, including gene expression, heterochromatin dynamics, and regulation of development (reviewed in [Amaral et al., 2008][1]), and ARGONAUTE (AGO) proteins are key effectors of these processes ...

Precision RNAi in Tomato Using Synthetic Trans‐Acting Small Interfering RNAs Derived From Minimal Precursors

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT RNA interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved gene silencing mechanism regulating gene expression at transcriptional and post‐transcriptional levels in plants. Synthetic trans‐acting small interfering RNAs (syn‐tasiRNAs) have emerged as powerful tools for highly specific and efficient gene silencing.

DNA interference and beyond: structure and functions of prokaryotic Argonaute proteins

Nature Communications, 2018
In this review, Aravin and colleagues examine bacterial and archaeal Argonaute proteins, discuss their diverse architectures and their possible roles in host defense, proposing additional functions for Argonaute proteins in prokaryotic cells.
