Conteúdo:  Technologies involving the use of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) to elicit RNA interference (RNAi) in pest control have emerged as an alternative to traditional pesticides. RNAi can mediate natural cell protection being a promising tool to provide prompt responses in plant defense against pathogens. The present study is focused on the physicochemical characterization of formed dsRNAloaded nanoparticles as a result of chitosan-dsRNA ionic interactions. Additionally, a preliminary investigation was conducted of the in-vitro toxicity of loaded nanoparticles in lettuce and human red blood cells. dsRNA molecules, homologous to partial phytopathogenic tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) sequence, were used as a model. The main groups involved in the chitosan-dsRNA ionic coupling were identified by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and the stability of formed nanoparticles was accessed by dynamic light scattering, electrophoresis, and thermal analyses. The chitosan showed a higher ability to bind to dsRNA at low charge ratios (N/P = 1), ruled by positively charged chitosan methyl groups and negatively charged phosphate groups from the RNA backbone, resulting in small nanoparticles (73.25 nm size) at low polydispersity (0.25). The toxic assays of these particles, on lettuce seeds and in human erythrocytes, revealed very low toxicity demonstrating their safety as a platform, thereby holding potential use as biodefensive for crop protection.

Título:  Molecular characterization of the first commercial transgenic common bean immune to the Bean golden mosaic virus.

Conteúdo:  Golden mosaic of common bean is caused by the Bean golden mosaic virus (BGMV). The disease is one of the greatest constraints on bean production in Latin America and causes significant yield losses. The RNAi concept was explored to silence the rep (AC1) viral gene and a transgenic bean line immune to BGMV upon inoculation at high pressure was previously generated. Identification of the transgene insert confirmed the presence of a single locus corresponding to two intact copies of the RNAi cassette in opposite orientation and three intact copies of the AtAhas gene. It is flanked by Phaseolus genomic sequences and interspersed by one nuclear and three chloroplastic genomic sequences. Southern analyses showed that the transgenes were structurally stable for eight self-pollinated generations and after backcrosses with a non transgenic commercial variety. Transgene expression analyses revealed similar levels of siRNA in leaves of transgenic plants cultivated under field conditions in three distinct regions. siRNA were also analyzed during seed development in common bean transgenic plants. siRNA signals were also detected in seeds, albeit at significantly lower levels than those observed in leaves, and could not be detected in seeds cooked during 10 min. This information is relevant to demonstrate that GM beans are free of siRNA signals after cooking and therefore suitable for human consumption. Additionally, characterization of the locus where the transgene was integrated in the ... Mostrar Tudo
