Two plant viral suppressors of silencing require the ethylene-inducible host transcription factor RAV2 to block RNA silencing.

Two plant viral suppressors of silencing require the ethylene-inducible host transcription factor RAV2 to block RNA silencing.

RNA silencing is a highly conserved pathway in the network of interconnected defense responses that are activated during viral infection. As a counter-defense, many plant viruses encode proteins that block silencing, often also interfering with endogenous small RNA pathways. However, the mechanism o...
