RNA silencing suppression by plant pathogens: defence, counter-defence and counter-counter-defence

TL;DR: There is increasing evidence that plants have evolved specific defences against RNA-silencing suppression by pathogens, providing yet another illustration of the never-ending molecular arms race between plant pathogens and their hosts.
Book ChapterDOI

Molecular biology of potyviruses.

TL;DR: An update of the knowledge on potyvirus multiplication, movement, and transmission and on potYvirus/plant compatible interactions including pathogenicity and symptom determinants is presented and information on biotechnological applications of potyviruses is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effector biology of plant-associated organisms:concepts and perspectives

TL;DR: Effectors have emerged as a central class of molecules in the authors' integrated view of plant-microbe interactions, and their study has significantly contributed to advancing knowledge of plant hormones, plant development, plant receptors, and epigenetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validation of reference genes for gene expression studies in virus-infected Nicotiana benthamiana using quantitative real-time PCR.

TL;DR: This is the first study to systematically examine and evaluate the stability of different reference genes in N. benthamiana under conditions of viral infections and provides researchers studying these viruses a shortlist of potential housekeeping genes to use as normalisers for qPCR experiments, which should also guide the selection of appropriate reference genes for gene expression studies of N.benthamiana.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crop immunity against viruses: outcomes and future challenges.

TL;DR: This review aims at describing some of the most devastating diseases caused by viruses on crops and summarizes current knowledge about plant–virus interactions, focusing on resistance mechanisms that prevent or limit viral infection in plants.

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

Origin, biogenesis, and activity of plant microRNAs.

TL;DR: Current advances in understanding of the origin, biogenesis, and mode of action of plant miRNAs are discussed and comparisons with their metazoan counterparts are drawn.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiviral Immunity Directed by Small RNAs

TL;DR: The proteins required for viRNA production as well as several key downstream components of the antiviral immunity pathway have been identified in plants, flies, and worms, illuminating an ongoing molecular arms race that likely impacts the evolution of both viral and host genomes.
