Small RNAs from the plant pathogenic fungus <i>Sclerotinia sclerotiorum</i> highlight candidate host target genes associated with quantitative disease resistance

2018-06-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Plant pathogenic fungi secrete effector proteins and secondary metabolites to cause disease. Additionally, some produce small RNAs (sRNAs) that silence transcripts of host immunity genes through RNA interference. The fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infects over 600 plant species, but little is known about its molecular interactions with its hosts. In particular, the role of sRNAs in S. sclerot...
