Tissue-specific transposon-associated small RNAs in the gymnosperm tree, Norway spruce
Abstract Background Small RNAs (sRNAs) are regulatory molecules impacting on gene expression and transposon activity. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are responsible for tissue-specific and environmentally-induced gene repression. Short interfering RNAs (siRNA) are constitutively involved in transposon silencing...
