Facile means for quantifying microRNA expression by real-time PCR

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 20–24 nucleotide RNAs that are predicted to play regulatory roles in animals and plants. Here we report a simple and sensitive real-time PCR method for quantifying the expression of plant miRNAs. Total RNA, including miRNAs, was polyadenylated and reverse-transcribed with a po...
