Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small 21-nucleotide RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression. MiR396 controls leaf development by targeting GRF and bHLH transcription factors in Arabidopsis. WRKY transcription factors, unique to plants, have been identified as mediating varied stress responses. The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) HaWRKY6 is a particularly divergent WRKY gene exhibiting a putative target...
