Biogenesis of siRNA molecules in plants for silencing of complementary mRNA. dsRNA serves as a substrate for producing siRNAs, which function as a template to silence matching mRNA molecules. This RNAi pathway serves an important function in genetic regulation and, in the case of plants, immune response. Created with BioRender.com.
