Plant cells accumulate small RNA molecules that regulate plant development, genome
stability, and environmental responses. These small RNAs fall into three major classes …

Plants grow in dynamic environments where they can be exposed to a multitude of stressful
factors, all of which affect their development, yield, and, ultimately, reproductive success …

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as important regulators of gene
expression and plant development. Here, we identified 6,510 lncRNAs in Arabidopsis under …

Regulatory small RNAs, which range in size from 20 to 24 nucleotides, are ubiquitous
components of endogenous plant transcriptomes, as well as common responses to …

The XRN family of 5′→ 3′ exoribonucleases is critical for ensuring the fidelity of cellular
RNA turnover in eukaryotes. Highly conserved across species, the family is typically …

Since their discovery more than two decades ago, animal long noncoding RNA s (lnc RNA
s) have emerged as important regulators of many biological processes. Recently, a large …

Abstract cis-natural antisense transcripts (cis-NATs) are widespread in plants and are often
associated with downregulation of their associated sense genes. We found that a cis-NAT …

Short noncoding RNA s have been demonstrated to play important roles in regulation of
gene expression and stress responses, but the repertoire and functions of long noncoding …

Cold and drought stresses seriously affect cassava (Manihot esculenta) plant growth and
yield. Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of diverse …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and natural antisense transcripts (NATs) control many biological
processes and have been broadly applied for genetic manipulation of eukaryotic gene …
