A fungal pathogen deploys a small silencing RNA that attenuates mosquito immunity and facilitates infection
Insecticidal fungi represent a promising alternative to chemical pesticides for disease vector control. Here, we show that the pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana exports a microRNA-like RNA (bba-milR1) that hijacks the host RNA-interference machinery in mosquito cells by binding to Argonaute 1 (AG...
