Plants can communicate inter- and intraspecifically using signals transmitted via root exudate and volatiles released into the atmosphere. A recent study by Betti et al. discovered that miRNA is one of the signals used during plant communication. MiRNAs are secreted by plants and change the gene expression in neighbouring plants.
植物可以通过经由根系分泌物传递的信号以及释放到大气中的挥发物进行种间和种内通讯。贝蒂等人最近的一项研究发现,微小RNA(miRNA)是植物通讯过程中使用的信号之一。微小RNA由植物分泌,并改变邻近植物中的基因表达。
