  1. ncbi Evolution of Arabidopsis MIR genes generates novel microRNA classes
    Franck Vazquez
    Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research, Novartis Research Foundation, Maulbeerstrasse 66, 4058 Basel, Switzerland
    Nucleic Acids Res 36:6429-38. 2008
    ..Our results suggest that evolution of MIR genes is associated with gradual, overlapping changes in DCL usage resulting in specific size classes of miRNAs...
  2. ncbi The biosynthetic pathways and biological scopes of plant small RNAs
    Franck Vazquez
    Botanical Institute Basel, University of Basel, Zurich Basel Plant Science Center, Schönbeinstrasse 6, CH 4056 Basel, Switzerland
    Trends Plant Sci 15:337-45. 2010
    ..In this review, we integrate these studies to provide updated views on the biosynthetic pathways and dedicated functions of the endogenous sRNA classes of plants, emphasizing their specialized scopes...
  3. ncbi Four plant Dicers mediate viral small RNA biogenesis and DNA virus induced silencing
    Todd Blevins
    Institute of Botany, University of Basel, Schönbeinstrasse 6, 4056 Basel, Switzerland
    Nucleic Acids Res 34:6233-46. 2006
    ..Our work highlights the complexity of virus interaction with host silencing pathways and suggests that DCL multiplicity helps mediate plant responses to diverse viral infections...
  4. ncbi miR393 and secondary siRNAs regulate expression of the TIR1/AFB2 auxin receptor clade and auxin-related development of Arabidopsis leaves
    Azeddine Si-Ammour
    Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research, Novartis Research Foundation, 4058 Basel, Switzerland
    Plant Physiol 157:683-91. 2011
    ..Thus, miR393 and possibly siTAARs regulate auxin perception and certain auxin-related aspects of leaf development...
  5. ncbi Specific impact of tobamovirus infection on the Arabidopsis small RNA profile
    Quanan Hu
    Botanical Institute, Department of Plant Physiology, Zurich Basel Plant Science Center, University of Basel, Basel, Switzerland
    PLoS ONE 6:e19549. 2011
    ..These complexes may sequester viral and host sRNAs to engage them in yet unknown mechanisms involved in plant:virus interactions...
  6. ncbi miR393: integrator of environmental cues in auxin signaling?
    David Windels
    Botanical Institute, University of Basel, Zurich Basel Plant Science Center, Basel, Switzerland
    Plant Signal Behav 6:1672-5. 2011
    ..The known roles of miR393 in nitrate response, in defence against pathogenic bacteria and in plant development lead us to hypothesize that miR393 plays an important role to integrate complex environmental stimuli.  ..
  7. ncbi Primary and secondary siRNAs in geminivirus-induced gene silencing
    Michael Aregger
    Institute of Botany, University of Basel, Basel, Switzerland
    PLoS Pathog 8:e1002941. 2012

    Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research, Novartis Research Foundation, Maulbeerstrasse 66, CH 4058 Basel, Switzerland
    Trends Plant Sci 11:460-8. 2006
    ..Moreover, several experimental results indicate redundancies among double-strand RNA binding proteins and ARGONAUTE proteins, which probably create a complex network of small RNA pathways...
