Abstract excerpt
RNA silencing in plants and some animals has a non-cell-autonomous effect due to an RNA signal that moves between cells or organs. To identify unique factors involved in this process, we analyzed a group of Arabidopsis mutants with defective spread of RNA silencing from a transgene expressed specifically in the phloem. These mutants accumulated reduced amounts of small interfering (si)RNA from the transgene locus...
