Small RNA mediated immune responses: insights from analyses of nine soybean R-gene near-isogenic lines and their susceptible parent

ABSTRACT: Small RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are negative regulators to target endogenous genes and repetitive sequences in plants. Although miRNAs and trans-acting or phased siRNAs (tasiRNAs or phasiRNAs) were found to target hundreds of disease related genes in Medicago, their role in plant-pathogen interactions in the legumes, particularly the R genes mediated interaction of soybean and the pathogen Phytophthora sojae is poorly understood. A deep sequencing was performed on nine soybean near isogenic lines (NILs) each carrying an Rps (Resistance to Phytophthora sojae) gene and their recurrent parent “Williams”, with sampling performed both pre- and post-inoculation with P. sojae. From these data, 44 known MIRNA loci with new miRNA variants, 78 novel miRNA
