Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are processed products of primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) and regulate the target gene expression. Though the regulatory roles of the several mature plant miRNAs have been studied in detail, the functions of other regions of the pri-miRNAs are still unrecognized. Recent studies suggest that a few pri-miRNAs may encode small peptides, miRNA-encoded peptides (miPEPs); however, the functions of these...
