Plant microRNAs and their role in defense against viruses: a bioinformatics approach
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>microRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding short RNAs that regulate gene expression in eukaryotes by translational inhibition or cleavage of complementary mRNAs. In plants, miRNAs are known to target mostly transcription factors and are impli...
