The role of AGO10 in plant immunity via trans-species RNA interference
Plant Science Research WeeklyIn this preprint, Wang et al. unravel a novel role for ARGONAUTE10 (AGO10) in plant immunity. Specifically, they found that AGO10 is involved in trans-species RNA interference (tsRNAi), a mechanism plants use to silence target genes in pathogens. Upon Phytophthora capsici infection, two distinct ago10…
