Small nucleolar RNA R160 of the members of the box C/D family function in directing site-specific 2'-O-methylation of substrate RNAs. snoR160 was identified by computational screening of the rice "Oryza sativa" and is predicted to acts as a methylation guide for 25S ribosomal RNA in plants. snoR160 has also been alternatively named snoZ270 in rice. Small nucleolar RNA R160 Samm nucleolar RNA R160 (also known as snoR160) is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecule identified in plants which functions in the modification of other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). This type of modifying RNA is usually located in the nucleolus of the eukaryotic cell which is
Scirpophaga nivella orange anal tuft, sometimes brownish in the female. The larvae are off white with a reddish dorsal line. Major feeding plant is sugarcane, besides "Oryza sativa", "Scirpus", "Cyperus", "Eleocharis" (including "Eleocharis dulcis") and "Calidum articulatum" are also susceptible as feeding plants of the moth. Caterpillars bore into midrib, by leaving red markings and small holes on the leaves. Then it bore in the upper portion of stem, causing "dead heart" symptoms. Gradually, side branches start growing from a lower node, giving a characteristic "bunchy top" appearance to the plant. Most effective method is using biological predators and parasitoids. It is
