What We’re Reading This Week
A weekly plant science research roundup curated and summarized by our Plantae Editors and Fellows
Gating of miRNA movement at defined cell-cell interfaces governs their impact as positional signals
Small RNAs constitute a unique signal transduction mechanism by targeting specific mRNAs and causing a direct down-regulation of target gene expression. Mobile RNAs are known to act as positional cues in developing tissues or to signal stress responses at the systemic level. Although plasmodesmata…
