Host‐induced silencing of the Minc09294 effector gene impairs Meloidogyne incognita and M. Enterolobii infection

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host‐induced gene silencing of the effector candidate Minc09294 significantly impairs Meloidogyne incognita parasitism, markedly reducing gall formation, reproduction, and the development of specialized giant cells, with partial cross‐species effects on M.

Exploring new strategies in diseases resistance of horticultural crops

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
Horticultural crops are susceptible to various biotic stressors including fungi, oomycetes, bacteria, viruses, and root-knot nematodes. These pathogens limit the growth, development, yield, and quality of horticultural crops, and also limit their ...

Influence of retinoblastoma-related gene silencing on the initiation of DNA replication by African cassava mosaic virus Rep in cells of mature leaves in Nicotiana benthamiana plants [PDF]

, 2011
Background Geminiviruses mainly infect terminally differentiated tissues and cells in plants. They need to reprogramme host cellular machinery for DNA replication.

Efficiency of RNAi‐based gene silencing in fungi: a meta‐analysis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mechanistic interpretation of RNAi efficiency across fungal lifestyles and delivery strategies based on the present meta‐analysis. Summary RNA interference (RNAi) shows great potential to protect crops against fungal diseases, yet reported protection efficiencies vary greatly, and our understanding of the factors responsible for this variance remains ...

Cross-Kingdom Small RNAs among Animals, Plants and Microbes

Cells, 2019
Small RNAs (sRNAs), a class of regulatory non-coding RNAs around 20~30-nt long, including small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs), are critical regulators of gene expression.

Involvement of cathepsin B in the plant disease resistance hypersensitive response [PDF]

, 2007
A diverse range of plant proteases are implicated in pathogen perception and in subsequent signalling and execution of disease resistance. We demonstrate, using protease inhibitors and virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS), that the plant papain cysteine ...

Strigolactone-Induced Putative Secreted Protein 1 Is Required for the Establishment of Symbiosis by the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus Rhizophagus irregularis

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2016
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is the most widespread association between plants and fungi. To provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms of AM symbiosis, we screened and investigated genes of the AM fungus Rhizophagus irregularis that ...

Disease control in oilseed rape: Current insights and perspectives for next‐generation integrated pest management

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10572-10589, November 2026.
Winter oilseed rape in Europe suffers frequent pathogen losses. This review outlines key integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, rotation, residue and tillage management, optimized sowing, resistance, and targeted fungicides supported by forecasting.

Extracellular vesicles isolated from dsRNA-sprayed barley plants exhibit no growth inhibition or gene silencing in Fusarium graminearum

Fungal Biology and Biotechnology, 2022
Numerous reports have shown that incorporating a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-expressing transgene into plants or applying dsRNA by spraying it onto their leaves successfully protects them against invading pathogens exploiting the mechanism of RNA ...
