Spray-induced gene silencing for disease control is dependent on the efficiency of pathogen RNA uptake
2021-02-02
Abstract excerpt
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 S pray- I nduced G ene S ilencing (SIGS) for plant disease management. In this study, we aimed to determine the efficacy of SIGS across a variety of eukaryotic microbes. We first examined the efficiency of RNA uptake in multiple...
