    Abstract
    SummaryTransposable elements and other repetitive elements are silenced by the RNA-directed DNA methylation pathway (RdDM). In RdDM, POLIV-derived transcripts are converted into double stranded RNA (dsRNA) by the activity of RDR2 and subsequently processed into 24 nucleotide short interfering RNAs (24 -nt siRNAs) by DCL3. 24-nt siRNAs are recruited by AGO4 and serve as guides to direct AGO4 - siRNA complexes to chromatin bound POLV-derived transcripts generated from the template/target DNA. The interaction between POLV, AGO4, DMS3, DRD1, RDM1 and DRM2 promotes DRM2-mediated $\textit{de novo}$ DNA methylation.The Arabidopsis Retinoblastoma protein homolog is a master regulator of cell cycle, stem cell maintenance and development. $\textit{In silico}$ exploration of RBR protein partners revealed that several members of the RdDM pathway contain a motif that confers high affinity binding to RBR, including the largest subunits of POLIV and POLV (NRPD1 and NRPE1), the shared second largest subunit of POLIV and POLV (NRPD/E2), RDR1, RDR2, DCL3, DRM2 and SUVR2. We demonstrate that RBR binds to DRM2, DRD1 and SUVR2. We also report that seedlings from loss -of-function mutants in RdDM and in $\textit{RBR}$ show similar phenotypes in the root apical meristem. Furthermore, we show that RdDM and SUVR2 targets are up-regulated in the $\textit{35S

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items. For anonymous users the allowed maximum amount is 50 search results.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
