Nanoparticle carriers enhance RNA stability and uptake efficiency and prolong the protection against Rhizoctonia solani

Abstract Spray-induced gene silencing (SIGS) can inhibit plant diseases by topical application of double- (dsRNA) or single-stranded (sRNA) RNA molecules onto plants to silence virulence-related pathogen genes. However, the on-field application of SIGS is limited by the instability of naked RNA and...
