The Diverse Functions of Fungal RNase III Enzymes in RNA Metabolism

2012
Enzymes from the ribonuclease III family bind and cleave double-stranded RNA to initiate RNA processing and degradation of a large number of transcripts in bacteria and eukaryotes. This chapter focuses on the description of the diverse functions of fungal RNase III members in the processing and degradation of cellular RNAs, with a particular emphasis ...

Host-induced post-transcriptional hairpin RNA-mediated gene silencing of vital fungal genes confers efficient resistance against Fusarium wilt in banana.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2014
Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), is among the most destructive diseases of banana (Musa spp.). Because no credible control measures are available, development of resistant cultivars through genetic engineering is the only

Synthesizing Fluorescently Labeled dsRNAs and sRNAs to Visualize Fungal RNA Uptake

2020
Fungal pathogens are responsible for severe crop losses worldwide. Defending crops against fungal disease is critical for global food security; however, most current disease management approaches rely on chemical fungicides that can leave dangerous residues in the environment.

Genome-Wide Identification of Circular RNAs in Fungal Parasite Nosema ceranae

Current Microbiology, 2018
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are newly discovered endogenous non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that play key roles in microRNA function and transcriptional regulation. Though a large number of circRNAs had been identified in animals and plants, however, little is known regarding circRNAs in Nosema ceranae, a widespread fungal parasite of honeybee.

Using RNA-seq for Analysis of Differential Gene Expression in Fungal Species

2016
The ability to extract, identify and annotate large amounts of biological data is a key feature of the "omics" era, and has led to an explosion in the amount of data available. One pivotal advance is the use of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) techniques such as RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq).
