Open AccessDevelopment-associated microRNAs in grains of wheat (Triticum aestivumL.)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of regulatory small RNAs (sRNAs) that down-regulate target genes by mRNA degradation or translational repression. Numerous plant miRNAs have been identified. Evidence is increasi...

Open AccessCloning and characterization of two Argonaute genes in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Argonaute proteins are key components of RNA interference (RNAi), playing important roles in RNA-directed gene silencing. Various classes of Argonaute genes have been identified from plants and might be involv...
