| Abstract | Recent studies have shown that plants are able to express the artificial genesresponsible for the synthesis of double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) and hairpindouble-stranded RNAs (hpRNAs), as well as uptake and process exogenous dsRNAsand hpRNAs to suppress the gene expression of plant pathogenic viruses, fungi,or insects. Both endogenous and exogenous dsRNAs are processed into smallinterfering RNAs (siRNAs) that can spread locally and systemically through theplant, enter pathogenic microorganisms, and induce RNA interference-mediatedpathogen resistance in plants. There are numerous examples of the developmentof new biotechnological approaches to plant protection using transgenic plantsand exogenous dsRNAs. This review summarizes new data on the use of transgenesand exogenous dsRNAs for the suppression of fungal and insect virulence genes,as well as viruses to increase the resistance of plants to these pathogens. Wealso analyzed the current ideas about the mechanisms of dsRNA processing andtransport in plants. |
