In eukaryotic species, RNA silencing is a conserved mechanism for controlling gene expression. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RDR), argonaute (AGO), and dicer-like (DCL) proteins are essential for RNA silencing. The RNA interference (RNAi) system regulates eukaryotic gene expression throughout gr...
