Control of Aflatoxin Production of Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus Using RNA Silencing Technology by Targeting aflD (nor-1) Gene. [PDF]

, 2011
Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus are important pathogens of cotton, corn, peanuts and other oil-seed crops, producing toxins both in the field and during storage.

Effects of the Crinivirus Coat Protein–Interacting Plant Protein SAHH on Post-Transcriptional RNA Silencing and Its Suppression

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2013
In plants, post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is a sequence-specific mechanism of RNA degradation induced by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), which is processed into small interfering RNAs (siRNAs).

Acquisition of full-length viral helicase domains by insect retrotransposon-encoded polypeptides

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Recent metagenomic studies in insects identified many sequences unexpectedly closely related to plant virus genes. Here we describe a new example of this kind, insect R1 LINEs with an additional C-terminal domain in their open reading frame 2.

Computational discovery of animal small RNA genes and targets [PDF]

, 2007
Though recently discovered, small RNAs appear to play a wealth of regulatory roles, being involved in degradation of target mRNAs, translation silencing of target genes, chromatin remodeling and transposon silencing.

RNA interference: more than a research tool in the vertebrates' adaptive immunity

Retrovirology, 2005
In recent years, RNA silencing, usage of small double stranded RNAs of ~21 – 25 base pairs to regulate gene expression, has emerged as a powerful research tool to dissect the role of unknown host cell factors in this 'post-genomic' era.

Identification of Silencing Suppressor Protein Encoded by Strawberry Mottle Virus

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Strawberry mottle virus (SMoV) is associated with strawberry decline disease, causing losses to fruit yield and quality. In this study, using a screening system that enables detection of both local and systemic plant host (RNA silencing) defense ...

Influence of viral genes on the cell-to-cell spread of RNA silencing [PDF]

The turnip crinkle virus-based vector TCV–GFPDCP had been devised previously to study cell-to-cell and long-distance spread of virus-induced RNA silencing.

Novel endoribonucleases as central players in various pathways of eukaryotic RNA metabolism [PDF]

, 2010
For a long time it has been assumed that the decay of RNA in eukaryotes is mainly carried out by exoribonucleases, which is in contrast to bacteria, where endoribonucleases are well documented to initiate RNA degradation.

BdCV1-Encoded P3 Silencing Suppressor Identification and Its Roles in Botryosphaeria dothidea, Causing Pear Ring Rot Disease

Cells, 2023
Pear ring rot disease is an important branch disease, caused by Botryosphaeria dothidea. With the discovery of fungal viruses, the use of their attenuated properties for biological control provides a new strategy for the biological control of fungal ...
