Natural antisense transcripts of MIR398 genes suppress microR398 processing and attenuate plant thermotolerance

MiRNAs and natural antisense transcripts can both regulate gene expression and plant development. Here, the authors show that cis-NATs to MIR398 repress processing of pri-miR398 and that cis-NAT expression is downregulated at high temperatures, contributing to miR398 mediated thermotolerance respons...
