Abstract excerpt
In plants, the RNA silencing machinery responds to numerous inputs, including viral infection, microRNAs, and endogenous siRNAs that may act both in trans and in cis. Additionally, the full spectrum of silencing outcomes has been demonstrated in plants, ranging from mRNA degradation to repression at the level of protein synthesis to chromatin remodeling. Genetic studies in Arabidopsis have indicated that...
