Characterization and comparative analysis of microRNAs in the rice pest Sogatella furcifera.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous regulatory RNA molecules 21-24 nucleotides in length that act as functional regulators of post-transcriptional repression of messenger RNA. We report the identification and characterization of a conserved miRNA and 171 novel miRNAs in the migratory rice p...
