Comparative miRNAome combined with transcriptome and degradome analysis reveals a novel miRNA-mRNA regulatory network associated with starch metabolism affecting pre-harvest sprouting resistance in wheat.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is one of the most important problems associated with the severe decrease of yield and quality under disaster weather of continuous rain in wheat harvesting stage. At present, the functions and mechanisms related to the involvement of post-transcriptional regulation has not been studied very clearly in PHS resistance.

Results

This study compared the differences of germinated seeds in miRNAome between the PHS-tolerant and PHS-susceptible white wheat varieties. A total of 1879 miRNAs were identified from three different stages during seed germination. In order to further obtain candidate miRNAs, the different datasets of differentially expressed miRNAs were excavated by using differential-expression and time-series analysis. Combined with
