Under heavy metal stress: genomic characterization and expression profiles of miRNA families in Phaseolus vulgaris.

Abstract excerpt

Increasingd abiotic stress conditions and factors globally affect important crop plants such as common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) on an agronomic scale. Among abiotic stressors, heavy metal stress is among the most impactful and challenging for plants. Heavy metals such as Cd, As, Ni, and Pb significantly reduce crop yields and negatively affect plant survival. Plants develop various defense and adaptation...
