Abstract

Vertical transmission of plant viruses through seeds has been known for a century, yet the mechanism for seeds to combat viral infection remains unclear. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Liu and Ding demonstrate the genetic requirement of RNA silencing (RNAi) pathway for plants to suppress seed transmission.

RNAi，植物种子对抗病毒感染的利剑

植物病毒通过种子垂直传播已有百年历史，但种子抗病毒感染的机制仍不清楚。在本期《细胞宿主与amp; 微生物》（Cell Host & Microbe）杂志上，刘和丁（音译）证明了植物抑制种子传播所需的 RNA 沉默（RNAi）遗传途径。

期刊介绍： Cell Host & Microbe is a scientific journal that was launched in March 2007. The journal aims to provide a platform for scientists to exchange ideas and concepts related to the study of microbes and their interaction with host organisms at a molecular, cellular, and immune level. It publishes novel findings on a wide range of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. The journal focuses on the interface between the microbe and its host, whether the host is a vertebrate, invertebrate, or plant, and whether the microbe is pathogenic, non-pathogenic, or commensal. The integrated study of microbes and their interactions with each other, their host, and the cellular environment they inhabit is a unifying theme of the journal. The published work in Cell Host & Microbe is expected to be of exceptional significance within its field and also of interest to researchers in other areas. In addition to primary research articles, the journal features expert analysis, commentary, and reviews on current topics of interest in the field.
