The control of developmental phase transitions in plants (2011, background): “In contrast to miR156, miR172 appears to be angiosperm specific and it has not been cloned from other land plants (Axtell and Bowman, 2008; Cuperus et al., 2011), even though the expression of miR172 has been detected by microarrays of RNA extracted from ferns (Axtell and Bartel, 2005) and has been…”
ShortStack: comprehensive annotation and quantification of small RNA genes. (2013, background): “…thousands of nonhairpin-derived 24-nt endogenous siRNAs, likely associated with the plant-specific heterochromatic siRNA pathway (Law and Jacobsen 2010; Wierzbicki 2012), coupled with a much lower number (hundreds) of 20-to 22-nt MIRNA s, several of which are highly abundant (Cuperus et al. 2011).”
A MicroRNA Superfamily Regulates Nucleotide Binding Site–Leucine-Rich Repeats and Other mRNAs[W][OA] (2012, background): “Other miRNAs, even when they exist as families, have fewer differ- ences andgenerally fewer isoforms (Felippes et al., 2008;Meyers et al., 2008; Cuperus et al., 2011).”
