Identification of miRNA precursors in the phloem of Cucurbita maxima. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Plant development and responses to environmental cues largely depend on mobile signals including microRNAs (miRNAs) required for post-transcriptional silencing of specific genes. Short-range cell-to-cell transport of miRNA in developing tissues and organs is involved in transferring positional information essential for determining cell fate.
