The South American fruit fly : an important pest insect with RNAi-sensitive larval stages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
RNA interference (RNAi) technology has been used in the development of approaches for pest control. The presence of some essential genes, the so-called "core genes," in the RNAi machinery is crucial for its efficiency and robust response in gene ...

RNA interference in marine and freshwater sponges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: The marine sponge Tethya wilhelma and the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri are emerging model organisms to study evolution, gene regulation, development, and physiology in non-bilaterian animal systems. Thus far, functional methods (i.e.,

Accelerated delivery of dsRNA in lepidopteran midgut cells by a Galanthus nivalis lectin (GNA)-dsRNA-binding domain fusion protein.

open access: yesPesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2021
Lepidopteran insects are highly refractory to oral RNA interference (RNAi). Degradation, impaired cellular uptake and intracellular transport of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) are considered the major factors responsible for the reduced RNAi efficiency in ...

SARS-CoV-2 nsp15 preferentially degrades AU-rich dsRNA via its dsRNA nickase activity

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2023
SUMMARYIt has been proposed that coronavirus nsp15 mediates evasion of host cell double-stranded (ds) RNA sensors via its uracil-specific endoribonuclease activity. However, how nsp15 processes viral dsRNA, commonly considered as a genome replication intermediate, remains elusive.

Understanding Viral dsRNA-Mediated Innate Immune Responses at the Cellular Level Using a Rainbow Trout Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Viruses across genome types produce long dsRNA molecules during replication [viral (v-) dsRNA]. dsRNA is a potent signaling molecule and inducer of type I interferon (IFN), leading to the production of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), and a protective

The Schistosoma mansoni Cytochrome P450 (CYP3050A1) Is Essential for Worm Survival and Egg Development. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Schistosomiasis affects millions of people in developing countries and is responsible for more than 200,000 deaths annually. Because of toxicity and limited spectrum of activity of alternatives, there is effectively only one drug, praziquantel, available

Environmental Fate and Dissipation of Applied dsRNA in Soil, Aquatic Systems, and Plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Two primary use patterns exist for dsRNA-based products for crop protection: in planta produced dsRNA such as in a genetically engineered (GE) crop; and topically applied dsRNA such as a spray application.

RNA interference : a promising biopesticide strategy against the African sweetpotato weevil Cylas brunneus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The African sweetpotato weevil Cylas brunneus is one of the most devastating pests affecting the production of sweetpotatoes, an important staple food in Sub-Saharan Africa. Current available control methods against this coleopteran pest are limited.

Investigation of Virus Diseases and Molecular Detection of Little Cherry Virus 1 on Cherry Plants at Niğde Province

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2019
To investigate the virus infections of sour and sweet cherries, various locations of Niğde province were examined during 2017. Ninety sweet and sour cherry leaf samples showing suspicious virus symptoms were collected and screened with virus-specific ...
