Systems and evolutionary characterization of microRNAs and their underlying regulatory networks in soybean cotyledons.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an emerging class of small RNAs regulating a wide range of biological processes. Soybean cotyledons evolved as sink tissues to synthesize and store seed reserves which directly affect soybean seed yield and quality. However, little is known about miRNAs and their regulatory ne...
