Journal ArticleDOI

A species of small antisense RNA in posttranscriptional gene silencing in plants.

TL;DR: The 25-nucleotide antisense RNA detected in transgene-induced PTGS is likely synthesized from an RNA template and may represent the specificity determinant of PTGS.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNA silencing in plants

TL;DR: Diverse biological roles of these pathways have been established, including defence against viruses, regulation of gene expression and the condensation of chromatin into heterochromatin, and the full extent of this functional diversity in genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of genome control is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

An enhanced transient expression system in plants based on suppression of gene silencing by the p19 protein of tomato bushy stunt virus.

TL;DR: A system based on co-expression of a viral-encoded suppressor of gene silencing, the p19 protein of tomato bushy stunt virus, that prevents the onset of PTGS in the infiltrated tissues and allows high level of transient expression is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

An RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase Gene in Arabidopsis Is Required for Posttranscriptional Gene Silencing Mediated by a Transgene but Not by a Virus

TL;DR: It is proposed that the role of SDE1 is to synthesize a double-stranded RNA initiator of posttranscriptional gene silencing, according to this idea, when a virus induces posttranscriptal genesilencing, the virus-encoded RNA polymerase would produce the double-Stranded RNA and Sde1 would be redundant.
