Other claims from this paper (8)
- Mechanism Clathrin-mediated endocytosis drove RNA root uptake.
- Intervention effect Inhibiting root hairs reduced RNA uptake.
- Association Higher root hair density enhanced RNA uptake.
- Observation Lateral roots bypassed the casparian strip.
- Intervention effect Irrigated dsRNA NPs targeting PDS produced bleaching.
- Intervention effect Calcofluor White inhibition of root hair growth yielded no RNA uptake.
- Intervention effect Auxin produced more root hairs and RNA uptake beyond plant barriers.
- Intervention effect IBA treatment produced strong sustained PDS bleaching.
