Transcript profiles uncover temporal and stress-induced changes of metabolic pathways in germinating sugar beet seeds.

abstract：BACKGROUND:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in eukaryotes. In rice, MIR7695 expression is regulated by infection with the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae with subsequent down-regulation of an alternatively spliced transcript of natural res...
