The Whys and Wherefores of Transitivity in Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Transitivity in plants is a mechanism that produces secondary small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) from a transcript targeted by primary small RNAs (sRNAs). It expands the silencing signal to additional sequences of the transcript.

Using a hydrogen-bond index to predict the gene-silencing efficiency of siRNA based on the local structure of mRNA [PDF]
Biochem Biophys Res Comms, vol.320 (2) 622 (2004), 2017 The gene silencing effect of short interfering RNA (siRNA) is known to vary strongly with the targeted position of the mRNA. A number of hypotheses have been suggested to explain this phenomenon. We would like to test if this positional effect is mainly due to the secondary structure of the mRNA at the target site.

Application of RNA Interference to Root-Knot Nematode Genes Encoding Esophageal Gland Proteins
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2005 Plant parasitic nematodes have been, so far, refractory to transformation or mutagenesis. The functional analysis of nematode genes relies on the development of reverse genetic tools adapted to these obligate parasites.

The post-transcriptional gene silencing pathway in Eucalyptus
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2005 Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is a conserved surveillance mechanism that identifies and cleaves double-stranded RNA molecules and their cellular cognate transcripts.

Visible gland constantly traces virus-induced gene silencing in cotton
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 A virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) system was established to induce endogenous target gene silencing by post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS), which is a powerful tool for gene function analysis in plants.

Noncoding RNAs and Gene Silencing [PDF]
Cell, 2007 Noncoding RNA has long been proposed to control gene expression via sequence-specific interactions with regulatory regions. Here, we review the role of noncoding RNA in heterochromatic silencing and in the silencing of transposable elements (TEs), unpaired DNA in meiosis, and developmentally excised DNA.

MIGS as a Simple and Efficient Method for Gene Silencing in Rice
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 MiRNA-induced gene silencing (MIGS) technology is a special kind of RNA interference technology that uses miR173 to mediate the production of trans-acting siRNA (ta-siRNA) to achieve target gene silencing.

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000 Nicotiana benthamiana plants expressing Brome mosaic virus (BMV) p2 protein complemented replication of RNAs1+3 but, surprisingly, supported little or no replication of RNA-2. Despite this, the p2 transgenic plants were able to support systemic migration
