RNA silencing in plants by the expression of siRNA duplexes
NUCLEIC ACIDS RESEARCH, 32(21).
MeSH headings : Gene Expression Regulation, Plant; Genetic Vectors; Glucuronidase / analysis; Glucuronidase / genetics; Humans; Molecular Sequence Data; Promoter Regions, Genetic; RNA / genetics; RNA Interference; RNA, Small Cytoplasmic / genetics; RNA, Small Interfering / biosynthesis; RNA, Small Interfering / chemistry; RNA, Small Interfering / genetics; Signal Recognition Particle / genetics; Tobacco / genetics; Tobacco / metabolism
TL;DR:
It is reported that RNA silencing was achieved in plants through stable expression of short hairpin RNA, which was driven by Pol III RNA gene promoters, and the effectiveness of the human H1 promoter in a plant background suggested a conserved mechanism underlying Pol III complex functionality.

Differential substrate inhibition couples kinetically distinct 4-coumarate: Coenzyme A ligases with spatially distinct metabolic roles in quaking aspen
Plant Physiology, 128(2002), 428–438.
MeSH headings : Acyl Coenzyme A / metabolism; Caffeic Acids / metabolism; Cloning, Molecular; Coenzyme A Ligases / genetics; Coenzyme A Ligases / metabolism; Coumaric Acids / metabolism; Flavonoids / biosynthesis; Flavonoids / chemistry; Gene Expression Regulation, Enzymologic; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant; In Situ Hybridization; Isoenzymes / genetics; Isoenzymes / metabolism; Kinetics; Lignin / biosynthesis; Lignin / chemistry; Pinus / enzymology; Pinus / genetics; Plant Stems / cytology; Plant Stems / enzymology; Plant Stems / genetics; Promoter Regions, Genetic; Recombinant Proteins / metabolism; Salicaceae / enzymology; Salicaceae / genetics
TL;DR:
Single and mixed-substrate assays were conducted to determine whether the 4CLs from aspen exhibit clear catalytic identities under certain metabolic circumstances, and to advance a mechanism by which 4CL1 can selectively utilize caffeate for the support of monolignol biosynthesis in maturing xylem and phloem fibers.
