a phenomenon called RNA interference or RNAi. The apparently widespread nature of RNAi in eukaryotes, ranging from trypanosome to mouse, has sparked great interest from both applied and ...

Plants and fungi can use conserved RNA interference machinery to regulate each other’s gene expression—and scientists think they can make use of this phenomenon to create a new generation of ...

RNAi (RNA interference) is a biological process in which RNA molecules—microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA)—inhibit gene expression, typically by binding to messenger RNA (mRNA ...

"What excites us most about this discovery is that it indicates plants may control their microbiomes, in part, by regulating gene expression in microbes using cross-kingdom RNA interference ... the ...
