MicroRNA: A Dynamic Player from Signalling to Abiotic Tolerance in Plants
MicroRNA: A Dynamic Player from Signalling to Abiotic Tolerance in Plants

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding single-stranded RNA molecules composed of approximately 20-24 nucleotides in plants. They play an important regulatory role in plant growth and development and as a signal in abiotic tolerance. Some abiotic stresses include drought, salt, cold, high temperature, heavy metals and nutritional elements. miRNAs affect gene expression by manipulating the cleavage, translational expression or DNA methylation of target messenger RNAs (mRNAs)
