Integrated Analysis of Large-Scale Omics Data Revealed Relationship Between Tissue Specificity and Evolutionary Dynamics of Small RNAs in Maize (Zea mays).

abstract：:Replicative senescence of cells in vitro is often considered as counterpart for aging of the organism in vivo. In fact, both processes are associated with functional decay and similar molecular modifications. On epigenetic level, replicative senescence and aging evoke characteristic modifications in the DNA methylatio...
