Defense pathways in Arabidopsis restricting compatible tobamoviruses during infection [PDF]
Virus infected plants often develop strong disease symptoms including leaf deformation, chlorosis, necrosis and growth inhibition. In agriculture systems virus infection can lead to severe yield losses and a better understanding of plant defenses against

Host-induced gene silencing as resistance strategy against pathogens
Die Kombination von Strategien zur Bekämpfung der Kraut- und Knollenfäule (Fusarium head blight, FHB) wie Resistenzzüchtung und wirtsinduziertes Gen-Silencing (HIGS) könnte neue Wege zur Bekämpfung von FHB und anderen Krankheiten eröffnen. Die Produktion und der Transport von RNA-Molekülen sind Prozesse, die bei den HIGS-Mechanismen eine zentrale Rolle

The RNA Polymerase II-associated factor 1 complex represses small-RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing [PDF]
RNAi interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved regulatory mechanism employed by almost all Eukaryotes. With RNAi organisms can modulate the expression of endogenous genes and protect the integrity and identity of their genomes.

Host-Induced Gene Silencing of the MAPKK Gene PsFUZ7 Confers Stable Resistance to Wheat Stripe Rust [PDF]
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful genetic tool to accelerate research in plant biotechnology and control biotic stresses by manipulating target gene expression. However, the potential of RNAi in wheat to efficiently and durably control the devastating stripe rust fungus Puccinia striiformis f. sp.
