Project description:Brassinosteroids (BRs) are endogenous plant hormones and essential for normal plant growth and development. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) of Arabidopsis thaliana are involved in mediating cell proliferation in leaves, stress tolerance, and root development. The specifics of BRs mechanisms involving miRNAs are unknown. To explore the role of miRNAs in BR-mediated pathways, we analyzed differences in miRNA profiles between control (mock solution) and 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) treatments from customized miRNA microarrays.
