Integration of mRNA and miRNA analysis reveals the molecular mechanisms of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) response to salt stress.

ABSTRACT: The continuous increase of saline-alkali areas worldwide has led to the emergence of saline-alkali conditions, which are the primary abiotic stress or hindering the growth of plants. Beet is among the main sources of sugar, and its yield and sugar content are notably affected by saline-alkali stress. Despite sugar beet being known as a salt-tolerant crop, there are few studies on the mechanisms underlying its salt tolerance, and previous studies have mainly delineated the crop's response to stress induced by NaCl. Recently, advancements in miRNA-mRNA network analysis have led to an increased understanding of how plants, including sugar beet, respond to stress. In this study, seedlings of beet variety "N98122" were grown in the laboratory using hydroponics culture and were exposed to salt s
