Project description:To identify novel miRNA and NAT-siRNAs that are associated with abiotic stresses in sorghum, we generated small RNA sequences from sorghum seedlings that grew under control and under dought, salt, and cold stress treatments.
Project description:To identify novel miRNA and NAT-siRNAs that are associated with abiotic stresses in maize, we generated small RNA sequences from maize seedlings that grew under control and under dought, salt, and cold stress treatments.
Project description:To identify novel miRNA and NAT-siRNAs that are associated with abiotic stresses in rice, we generated small RNA sequences from inflorescences from rice under control and under dought, salt, and cold stress treatments. Over 30 million reads were generated.
Project description:To identify novel miRNA and NAT-siRNAs that are associated with abiotic stresses in Arabidopsis, we generated small RNA sequences from adult Arabidopsis plants under control and under dought, salt, and cold stress treatments. Over 23 million reads were generated.

Project description:We have characterized the changes in miRNA expression profiles in rice leaves under drought stress and As stress and compared these to unstressed leaves. 10 pairs of drought responsive and 8 pairs of As responsive miRNA-gene were identified and validated by qRT-PCR. This study identifies putative specific miRNA-mRNA regulatory modules with roles during drought and As stress. Putative microRNAs identified in this study are involved in hormone signaling, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, and antioxidant defence. The results of this study will assist in elucidating the role of miRNAs in post-transcriptional regulation of target genes during abiotic stress and may contribute to the development of strategies to engineer drought and heavy metal resistance.
