Filamentous fungi are widely used in biotechnology as cell factories for the production of
chemicals, pharmaceuticals and enzymes. In order to improve their productivities, genetic …

The origin story and emergence of molecular biology is muddled. The early triumphs in
bacterial genetics and the complexity of animal and plant genomes complicate an intricate …

Small RNAs (sRNAs) are known to regulate pathogenic plant–microbe interactions.
Emerging evidence from the study of these model systems suggests that microRNAs …

Small RNA s (sRNA s), an important type of pathogenicity factor, contribute to impairing host
immune responses. However, little is known about sRNA s in Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici …

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play an important role in the biology of various organisms,
including fungi, in which they are required for the trafficking of molecules across the cell wall …

The initial focus of recombinant protein production by filamentous fungi related to exploiting
the extraordinary extracellular enzyme synthesis and secretion machinery of industrial …

RNA interference (RNAi) is a conserved eukaryotic gene regulatory mechanism that uses
small noncoding RNAs to mediate posttranscriptional/transcriptional gene silencing. The …

The origins and evolution of virulence in amphibian-infecting chytrids Batrachochytrium
dendrobatidis (Bd) and Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) are largely unknown …

Small RNA molecules of about 20 to 30 nucleotides function in gene regulation and
genomic defense via conserved eukaryotic RNA interference (RNAi)-related pathways. The …

Recent discoveries regarding small RNAs and the mechanisms of gene silencing are
