Identification and characterization of miRNAs in ripening fruit of Lycium barbarum L. using high-throughput sequencing

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are master regulators of gene activity documented to play central roles in fruit ripening in model plant species, yet little is known of their roles in Lycium barbarum L. fruits. In this study, miRNA levels in L. barbarum fruit samples at four developmental stages, were assayed us...
