Antisense RNA in plant regulation

Antisense RNA in plant regulation

Antisense RNA (asRNA) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of gene expression in plants. By hybridizing with complementary sense RNA, asRNA can inhibit the translation of target mRNAs, effectively silencing specific genes. This mechanism is part of the broader RNA interference (RNAi) pathway, which is crucial for plant development, stress responses, and defense against pathogens. The manipulation of asRNA can be employed to enhance desired traits in crops, such as increased resistance to diseases or improved nutritional quality. Research into asRNA holds potential for innovative biotechnological applications in agriculture and plant breeding.
