Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: microRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small RNAs that play important regulatory functions in plant development. Genetic variations in miRNAs sequences or their target-binding sites (microRNA-target interaction sites) can alter miRNA targets in animal and human. Whether these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in plant are functional have not yet been determined. RESULTS: In this study, we constructed...
