The Whys and Wherefores of Transitivity in Plants

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Transcriptional Silencing of Geminiviral Promoter-Driven Transgenes Following Homologous Virus Infection

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2003
Promoters isolated from the Tomato leaf curl virus (TLCV) drive both constitutive and tissue-specific expression in transgenic tobacco. Following systemic TLCV infection of plants stably expressing TLCV promoter:GUS transgenes, transgene expression ...

Secondary siRNAs in Plants: Biosynthesis, Various Functions, and Applications in Virology

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The major components of RNA silencing include both transitive and systemic small RNAs, which are technically called secondary sRNAs. Double-stranded RNAs trigger systemic silencing pathways to negatively regulate gene expression.

Host-Induced Gene Silencing: A Powerful Strategy to Control Diseases of Wheat and Barley

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Wheat and barley are the most highly produced and consumed grains in the world. Various pathogens—viruses, bacteria, fungi, insect pests, and nematode parasites—are major threats to yield and economic losses.

The post-transcriptional gene silencing pathway in Eucalyptus

open access: yesGenetics 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.

Traffic into silence: endomembranes and post-transcriptional RNA silencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are small RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in plants and animals. Small RNAs guide Argonaute-containing RNA-induced silencing complexes to target RNAs in a sequence-

Insights into the kinetics of siRNA-mediated gene silencing from live-cell and live-animal bioluminescent imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules are potent effectors of post-transcriptional gene silencing. Using noninvasive bioluminescent imaging and a mathematical model of siRNA delivery and function, the effects of target-specific and treatment-specific ...

Local chromatin context regulates the genetic requirements of the heterochromatin spreading reaction.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2022
Heterochromatin spreading, the expansion of repressive chromatin structure from sequence-specific nucleation sites, is critical for stable gene silencing.

Assessment of RNAi-induced silencing in banana (Musa spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In plants, RNA- based gene silencing mediated by small RNAs functions at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional level to negatively regulate target genes, repetitive sequences, viral RNAs and/or transposon elements.

MIGS as a Simple and Efficient Method for Gene Silencing in Rice

open access: yesFrontiers 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.
