Massive Analysis of Rice Small RNAs: Mechanistic Implications of Regulated MicroRNAs and Variants for Differential Target RNA Cleavage[W][OA]

Abstract

This massive analysis of rice small RNAs evaluated annotated microRNAs (miRNAs) and identified new miRNAs and miRNAs regulated by environmental stresses. Of particular interest are miRNA family members with distinct sequences and organ-preferential expression; some of these guide differential target cleavage and provide new insight about how an agriculturally significant phenotype may be regulated
