NewsPlants use ‘trojan horse’ bubbles to fight mold invasions
A study describes how plants send tiny lipid “bubbles” filled with RNA across enemy lines, into the cells of the attacking mold. Once inside, different types of RNA emerge to suppress the infectious cells that sucked them in.

NewsUnzipping mRNA rallies plant cells to fight infection
Scientists studying a plant called Arabidopsis thaliana have discovered short snippets of folded RNA that are unzipped in the presence of a pathogen to allow plant cells to make defense proteins to fight infection.
