High-pressure sprayed siRNAs influence the efficiency but not the profile of transitive silencing

Abstract: In plants, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are a quintessential class of RNA interference (RNAi)-inducing molecules produced by the endonucleolytic cleavage of double stranded RNAs (dsRNAs). In order to ensure robust RNAi, the siRNAs are amplified through a positive feedback mechanism called transitivity. Transitivity relies on RNA-DIRECTED-RNA POLYMERASE 6 (RDR6)-mediated dsRNA synthesis using siRNA-targeted RNA. This secondary dsRNA is subsequently cleaved into secondary, mainly phased, siRNAs (phasiRNAs) by… Show more

“…Only 8 plants with at least one silenced leaf and 14 leaves with at least two silenced spots were detected (Fig 1b). The silenced spots were mostly very tiny, scattered, and had orange color, which was remarkably different from the 22nt-RNA induced PTGS (Fig 1c) (Uslu et al 2021). In order to find out whether PTGS underlies the mild silencing, sRNA sequencing was performed to detect gene body transitivity.…”

“…(a) The silencing phenotypes of 16C plants are shown. 22nt-siRNA164 by HPST (Uslu VV et al 2021) leads to consistent local silencing covering approximately 20% to 80% of the leaf surface. 22nt-siRNA164 by Carbon Dot and Low-Pressure Spraying (CD-LP) can lead to local silencing of the whole leaf area.…”
