摘要

microRNAs are a class of ~21-nt long, non-coding and newly-identified RNAs that play critical roles in post-transcriptional gene regulation. Their targets are involved in various biological processes, including development, metabolism, and stress response. Though a large number of miRNAs have been reported in many species, reports of miRNAs in sorghum are limited. Using a homology search based on the genomic survey sequence (GSS) and the microRNA (miRNA) secondary structure, a total of 17 new miRNAs were id...
