Unveiling crucial virulent milRNAs implicated in the initial infection of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense - EurekAlert

<p>In a paper published in <em>Mycology</em>, a research team from the College of Plant Protection at South China Agricultural University unveils crucial virulent miRNA-like small RNAs (milRNAs) implicated in the initial infection of <em>F. oxysporum</em> f. sp. <em>cubense </em>(<em>Foc</em>), the causal agent of devastating Fusarium wilt of banana (FWB). The findings not only deepen our understanding of <em>Foc</em> pathogenesis but also provide valuable molecular targets for the development of an efficient strategy to control FWB.</p>
