Whether apoplastic small RNAs regulate plant immunity? Check our work in tomato identified their roles in priming plant defence to Phytophthora. Thanks for the wonderful suggestion from Wenbo Ma and important collaboration with @jinfeng7chen.bsky.social

Our collaborated research identified a two-layer epigenetic mechanism to silence Avr genes in Phytophthora sojae and enable host adaptation in soybean. Please check url: academic.oup.com/nar/article/...

Effector gene silencing coordinated by histone methylation and small RNAs enhances host adaptation in a plant pathogen

Abstract. Pathogen adaptability driven by epigenetic processes remains poorly understood and poses a significant challenge to sustainable disease managemen
