Our results show that AGO9-dependent sRNA silencing is crucial to specify cell fate in the

Arabidopsis ovule, and that epigenetic reprogramming in companion cells is necessary for sRNA-dependent silencing in plant gametes.

Small RNA Plays Parallel Roles In Bacterial Metabolism (Dec. 4, 2007) - They are often overlooked, and were once thought to be too small to contribute much to major cellular processes, but in recent years the study of small ribonucleic acids (sRNA) has gained momentum. ... > read more

We identified a sRNA hot-spot on chromosome 19, overlapping a region containing both the sex-determining loci and a major cluster of NBS-LRR genes.

Additional loci enriched for sRNA production were characterised. 15 novel microRNAs (miRNAs) were predicted, including miRNA* sequences, including a novel locus that may encode a dual miRNA or a miRNA and short interfering RNAs (siRNAs).
