Further, it was also sought to pinpoint the 83 likely target genes of Lentil miRNAs and their most probable functions using Legume Information Resource (LIS) annotation pipeline. The newly identified miRNAs were mainly found to regulate the genes that encode transcription factors and key enzymes involved in metabolic processes as well as </span>oxidation-reduction<span> processes. Many of target genes were found to have an association with plant growth and development, stress response, defense and hormone </span></span>signaling pathways<span>. The miRNAs accounted is presumed to advance Lentil miRNAome in future as this computational study puts forward, first-ever, view towards miRNA research in Lentil.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":37751,"journal":{"name":"Agri Gene","volume":"8 ","pages":"Pages 45-56"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.aggene.2018.05.003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48752056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
