The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Small RNAs in transcriptional gene silencing and genome defence (2009, background): “RITS also physically associates with and is required for recruitment of the RNA-directed RNA polymerase complex (RDRC) to non-coding RNAs that are transcribed from centromeric repeat”
RNA meets chromatin. (2005, background): “Moreover, both RITS and RDRC localize to noncoding centromeric transcripts (Motamedi et al. 2004).”
RNAi-mediated chromatin silencing in fission yeast. (2008, background): “Mutations which destroy this activity cause phenotypes equivalent to those observed in cells lacking RNAi (Motamedi et al. 2004; Sugiyama et al. 2005).”
