Sulfate availability critically influences plant growth, yet the role of small RNAs, particularly microRNAs (miRNAs), in regulating responses to sulfate deficiency remains poorly understood. Here, we conducted a temporal analysis of sulfate deficiency-responsive miRNAs in the roots and leaves of Solanum lycopersicum (tomato), using an updated miRNA annotation in the SL4.0 genome. We found 40 differentially expressed miRNAs, including 2 novel, tomato-specific miRNAs.
