Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small RNAs that typically function by guiding the cleavage of target messenger RNAs. They have been shown to play major roles in a variety of plant processes, including development, and responses to pathogens and environmental stresses. To identify new miRNAs and regulation in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), 27 small RNA libraries were constructed and sequenced from various...
