Identification of novel and conserved microRNAs in Panax notoginseng roots by high-throughput sequencing
2015
Background
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that are important regulators of gene expression, and play major roles in plant development and their response to the environment. Root extracts from Panax notoginseng contain triterpene saponins as their principal bioactive constituent, and demonstrate medicinal properties. To investigate the novel and conserved miRNAs in P. notoginseng, three small RNA libraries constructed from 1-, 2-, and 3-year-old roots in which root saponin levels vary underwent high-throughput sequencing.
