Plant J
. 2023 Dec;
117(4):1206-1222.
PMID: 38038953
MicroRNA (miRNA) target mimicry technologies, utilizing naturally occurring miRNA decoy molecules, represent a potent tool for analyzing miRNA function. In this study, we present a highly efficient small RNA (sRNA)...

. 2022 Jul;
13(1):3926.
PMID: 35798725
Hairpin RNA (hpRNA) transgenes are the most successful RNA interference (RNAi) method in plants. Here, we show that hpRNA transgenes are invariably methylated in the inverted-repeat (IR) DNA and the...

PMID: 32688857
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RDR) activities were readily detected in extracts from cauliflower and broccoli florets, Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh callus tissue and broccoli nuclei. The synthesis of complementary RNA (cRNA)...

Genes (Basel)
. 2019 Jun;
10(6).
PMID: 31208028
Hairpin-structured (hp) RNA has been widely used to induce RNA interference (RNAi) in plants and animals, and an in vivo expression system for hpRNA is important for large-scale RNAi applications....

. 2019 Jun;
14(11):1074-1087.
PMID: 31189415
DNA demethylases function in conjunction with DNA methyltransferases to modulate genomic DNA methylation levels in plants. The Arabidopsis genome contains four DNA demethylase genes, ( () also known as (...

Genes (Basel)
. 2018 Nov;
9(11).
PMID: 30428604
Transposable elements (TEs) are widespread in the plant genome and can impact on the expression of neighbouring genes. Our previous studies have identified a number of DNA demethylase-regulated defence-related genes...

. 2017 Feb;
17(6):476-489.
PMID: 28217004
Understanding the fundamental nature of a molecular process or a biological pathway is often a catalyst for the development of new technologies in biology. Indeed, studies from late 1990s to...

Wiley Interdiscip Rev RNA
. 2015 Oct;
7(1):5-16.
PMID: 26481458
Viral satellite RNAs (satRNAs) are among the smallest RNA pathogens in plants. They have little or no protein-coding capacity but can have a major impact on the host plants through...

Front Plant Sci
. 2015 May;

PMID: 25964791
Viral satellite RNAs (satRNAs) are small subviral RNAs and depend on the helper virus for replication and spread. satRNAs can attenuate helper virus-induced symptoms, the mechanism of which remains unclear....

PMID: 25568943
Satellite RNAs (satRNAs) are small noncoding subviral RNA pathogens in plants that depend on helper viruses for replication and spread. Despite many decades of research, the origin of satRNAs remains...
