Descripción
Sumario:RNA interference is a known phenomenon of plant immune responses, involving the regulation of gene expression. The key components triggering the silencing of targeted sequences are double-stranded RNA molecules. The regulation of host–pathogen interactions is controlled by miRNA molecules, which regulate the expression of host resistance genes or the genes of the pathogen. The review focused on basic principles of RNA interference as a gene-silencing-based defense mechanism and the role of miRNA molecules in insect genomes. RNA interference as a tool for plant protection management is discussed. The review summarizes current miRNA-based biotechnology approaches for plant protection management.
