MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs approximately 20–24 nucleotides in length, which play crucial role during gene regulation plant–pathogen interaction. They negatively regulate the expression target genes, primarily at transcriptional or post-transcriptional level, through complementary base pairing with sequences. Recent studies reveal that pathogen infection, miRNAs produced by plants and miRNA-like (milRNAs) fungi can endogenous genes their respective organisms undergo trans-kingdom transfer. thereby recipient cells. These findings provide novel perspectives for deepening our understanding regulatory mechanisms underlying interactions. Here, we summarize discuss roles milRNAs mediating interactions via multiple pathways, providing new insights into functions these modes action. Collectively, lay theoretical foundation targeted management crop diseases.
