Constitutive Expression of miR408 Improves Biomass and Seed Yield in Arabidopsis

miR408 is highly conserved among different plant species and targets transcripts encoding copper-binding proteins. The function of miR408 in reproductive development remains largely unclear despite it being known to play important roles during vegetative development in Arabidopsis. Here, we show tha...
