Spray-Induced Gene Silencing: a Powerful Innovative Strategy for Crop Protection. [PDF]

Trends Microbiol, 2017
Plant pathogens cause serious crop losses worldwide. Recent new studies demonstrate that spraying double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) and small RNAs (sRNAs) that target essential pathogen genes on plant surfaces confer efficient crop protection. This so-called

Spray-induced gene silencing in phytopathogen: Mechanisms, applications, and progress

Advanced Agrochem
Phytopathogens can continuously cause serious losses worldwide to crop, fruit, and vegetable yields. The excessive use of conventional fungicides in pathogen management has raised severe environmental and health side effects and induced fungicide ...

Artificial nanovesicles for dsRNA delivery in spray-induced gene silencing for crop protection. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J, 2023
Summary Spray-Induced Gene Silencing (SIGS) is an innovative and eco-friendly technology where topical application of pathogen gene-targeting RNAs to plant material can enable disease control. SIGS applications remain limited because of the instability of dsRNA, which can be rapidly degraded when exposed to various ...

A Combinatorial Nanobased Spray-Induced Gene Silencing Technique for Crop Protection and Improvement [PDF]

ACS Omega, 2023
Abstract Recent research reports have shown that plant pests and pathogens have depleted the crop yield widely, which has led to an increased dependence on commercial pesticides and fungicides. Increased usage of these pesticides has also shown adverse effects on the environment, therefore many techniques have been implemented for ...

Spray-induced gene silencing for disease control is dependent on the efficiency of pathogen RNA uptake. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J, 2021
Summary Recent discoveries show that fungi can take up environmental RNA, which can then silence fungal genes through environmental RNA interference. This discovery prompted the development of Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing (SIGS) for plant disease management.

Spray-induced gene silencing: an innovative strategy for plant trait improvement and disease control [PDF]

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2021
Modern plant breeding is still a time-consuming and costly process, even with the most advanced technologies such as gene editing. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop alternative means for plant trait manipulation and plant protection.

Spray-induced gene silencing to identify powdery mildew gene targets and processes for powdery mildew control. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol, 2023
Abstract Spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS) is an emerging tool for crop pest protection. It utilizes exogenously applied double‐stranded RNA to specifically reduce pest target gene expression using endogenous RNA interference machinery.

Secondary amplification of siRNA machinery limits the application of spray-induced gene silencing. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol, 2018
Summary Spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS) is an innovative strategy for crop protection. However, the mechanism of SIGS is not known. Here, we first demonstrate that secondary small interfering RNA (siRNA) amplification limits the application of SIGS. A myosin5 gene ( Myo5

Reduction of Phakopsora pachyrhizi infection on soybean through host- and spray-induced gene silencing. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol, 2020
Asian soybean rust (ASR), caused by the obligate fungal pathogen Phakopsora pachyrhizi, often leads to significant yield losses and can only be managed through fungicide applications currently.

Spray-Induced Gene Silencing to Study Gene Function in Phytophthora

, 2022
RNA interference (RNAi) is a conserved cellular defense mechanism mediated by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) that can regulate gene expression through targeted destruction of mRNAs (messenger RNAs).
