Bell pepper is a model for studying the ripening process of non-climacteric fleshy fruit, during
which numerous physiological changes occur. UV-C irradiation is an abiotic stress, which …

Black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) is a prominent spice that is an indispensable ingredient in
cuisine and traditional medicine. Phytophthora capsici, the causative agent of footrot …

Increasing evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs
(circRNAs), and microRNAs (miRNAs) have roles during biotic and abiotic stress, though …

Pepper is an important vegetable worldwide and is a model plant for nonclimacteric fleshy
fruit ripening. Drastic visual changes and internal biochemical alterations are involved in fruit …

Abstract Background Black pepper (Piper nigrum L.), an important and long-cultivated spice
crop, is native to South India and grown in the tropics. Piperine is the main pungent and …

Small RNAs derived from transfer RNAs were recently assigned as potential gene regulatory
candidates for various stress responses in eukaryotes. In this study, we report on the cloning …

Capsicum species are highly diverse plants, with over 200 species. Their fruits are
important, both nutritionally and economically. Plant non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and …

Main conclusion Comparative analysis of genome-wide miRNAs and their gene targets
between cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) and fertile lines of pigeonpea suggests a possible …

Abstract microRNAs direct regulation of various metabolic pathways in plants and animals.
miRNAs may be useful in developing novel/elite genotypes, with enhanced metabolites and …

Small RNAs derived from ribosomal RNAs (srRNAs) are rarely explored in the high-
throughput data of plant systems. Here, we analyzed srRNAs from the deep-sequenced …
