MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 20–24 nucleotide noncoding RNAs abundant in plants and
animals. The biogenesis of plant miRNAs involves transcription of miRNA genes, processing …

Micro RNA s (mi RNA s) are small non‐coding RNA s, of typically 20–24 nt, that regulate
gene expression post‐transcriptionally through sequence complementarity. Since the …

In most organisms, the maturation of nascent RNAs is coupled to transcription. Unlike in
animals, the RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcribes microRNA genes (MIRNA s) as long …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are essential non-coding riboregulators of gene expression in plants
and animals. In plants, miRNAs guide their effector protein named ARGONAUTE (AGO) to …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) modulate plant homeostasis through the inactivation of specific
mRNAs, especially those encoding transcription factors. A delicate spatial/temporal balance …

Communication between interacting organisms via bioactive molecules is widespread in
nature and plays key roles in diverse biological processes. Small RNAs (sRNAs) can travel …

Post-transcriptional gene silencing mediated by microRNAs (miRNAs) modulates numerous
developmental and stress response pathways. For the last two decades, HASTY (HST), the …

For many years we have studied the processes involved in producing miRNAs in plants and
the numerous differences from their metazoan counterpart. A well-defined catalytic process …

Summary The Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.), a member of the Rhamnaceae family,
is an important perennial fruit tree crop of substantial economic, ecological and nutritional …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in gene expression regulation through RNA
cleavage or translation repression. Here, we report the identification of an evolutionarily …
