  • Application of pathogen-specific double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) was proposed as an approach against plant viruses. However, the instability of dsRNA hampers its application. Now, a study has used clay nanosheets to deliver dsRNA and obtain sustained protection against viruses.

  • Foliar spray of double-stranded RNA carried on clay particles or BioClay affords protection against multiple life stages of whitefly in crop hosts. The sprayed dsRNA makes its way to the vasculature of plants and is taken up by whiteflies during feeding.

  • MicroRNAs are key mobile players in many developmental and stress response pathways within plants. The role of miRNAs has now been expanded to include functioning as exogenously applied effectors and also plant-to-plant communicators of gene regulatory programs.
