Leaf senescence, the last stage of leaf development, is essential for whole-plant fitness as it
marks the relocation of nutrients from senescing leaves to reproductive or other developing …

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a special class of functional RNA molecules that are not
translated into proteins. ncRNAs have emerged as pivotal regulators of diverse …

An increasing number of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been discovered recently with
the advance of RNA-seq. Nevertheless, the function of ncRNAs in leaf senescence was not …

Key message This study showed the systematic identification of long non-coding RNAs
(lncRNAs) involving in flag leaf senescence of rice, providing the possible lncRNA-mRNA …

ABSTRACT A major part of the eukaryotic genome is transcribed into non-coding RNAs
(ncRNAs) having no protein coding potential. ncRNAs which are longer than 200 …

Many lncRNAs have been shown to play a vital role in aging processes. However, how
lncRNAs regulate seed aging remains unknown. In this study, we performed whole …

Plant leaves, harvesting light energy and fixing CO2, are a major source of foods on the
earth. Leaves undergo developmental and physiological shifts during their lifespan, ending …

Plant long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are widely accepted to play crucial roles during
diverse biological processes. In recent years, thousands of lncRNAs related to the …

Abstract Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in many important
biological processes in plants. Currently, a large fraction of plant lncRNA studies center at …

Nutrient stress is the most important environmental stress that limits plant growth and
development. Although recent evidence highlights the vital functions of long non-coding …
