A specialized ARGONAUTE enables trans-species RNA interference in plant immunity

2026-02-19

Abstract excerpt

Trans-species RNA interference (tsRNAi), in which plants produce small RNAs (sRNAs) to silence target genes in pathogens, has emerged as a promising strategy for disease control. However, whether tsRNAi constitutes an endogenous, regulated immune response remains unclear. Here, we show that ARGONAUTE10 (AGO10) plays a critical role in pathogen-induced tsRNAi. Loss of AGO10 in Arabidopsis abolished pathogen gene si...
