RNA interference of Aspergillus flavus in response to Aspergillus flavus partitivirus 1 infection by Yinhui Jiang, Yinhui Jiang, Xiang Liu, Xiang Liu, Xun Tian, Xun Tian, Jianhong Zhou, Jianhong Zhou, Qinrong Wang, Qinrong Wang, Bi Wang, Bi Wang, Wenfeng Yu, Wenfeng Yu, Yanping Jiang, Tom Hsiang, Xiaolan Qi, Xiaolan Qi

“…Small RNA sequencing analysis suggested that AfPV1 infection reduced the number of unique reads of sRNA in A. flavus, although there were many vsiRNA derived from the AfPV1 genome. GO term and KEGG pathway analyses revealed that the functions of sRNA affected by AfPV1 infection were closely related to vacuole production. …”
