摘要: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that are expressed in a tissue- and temporal-specific manner during development. They have been found to be highly conserved during the evolution of different species. miRNAs regulate the expression of several genes in various organisms, with some regulating the expression of multiple genes with similar or completely unrelated functions. Frequent disease and insect pest infestations severely limit agricultural development. Thus, cultivating resistant crops via miRNA-directed gene regulation in plants, insects, and pathogens is an important aspect of modern breeding practices. To strengthen the application of miRNAs in sustainable agriculture, plant endogenous or exogenous miRNAs have been used for plant breeding. Consequently, the development of biological pesticides based on miRNAs has become an important avenue for future pest control methods. However, selecting the appropriate miRNA according to the desired target traits in the target organism is key to successfully using this technology for pest control. This review summarizes the progress in research on miRNAs in plants and other species involved in regulating plant disease and pest resistance pathways. We also discuss the molecular mechanisms of relevant target genes to provide new ideas for future research on pest and disease resistance and breeding in plants.
