Fusarium graminearum DICER-like-dependent sRNAs are required for the suppression of host immune genes and full virulence.

In filamentous fungi, gene silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) shapes many biological processes, including pathogenicity. Recently, fungal small RNAs (sRNAs) have been shown to act as effectors that disrupt gene activity in interacting plant hosts, thereby undermining their defence responses. We sh...
