About this Research Topic
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs of 20-24nt in length mediating RNA silencing, a eukaryotic, sequence-specific repressive gene regulation mechanism. In plants, miRNAs have a pivotal role during fundamental processes such as development, maintenance of genome integrity and abiotic stress responses. It has become clear that miRNAs can regulate gene expression at the transcriptional or post-translational level, and play a crucial role in coordinating plant-pathogen interactions.
This Research Topic aims to cover the regulatory roles of miRNA in plant-pathogens and plant-probiotics interaction. Moreover, the regulatory role of miRNA in disease resistance of host plants during plant-pathogens interaction, and the regulatory role of miRNA in promoting host growth and development during plant-probiotics interaction is highly valued. Also, databases and web servers involved in microbiome, or miRNA information and various artificial intelligence techniques for plant-microbe interaction, and the interaction between disease-related miRNA could be further covered.
This Research Topic welcomes the different topics included hereby, but not limited to:
• Research progress on miRNA involvement in regulating plant resistance to pathogenic microorganisms.
• Research progress of miRNA involved in plant development regulation.
• Artificial intelligence techniques in functional research of plant miRNAs.
• Database and web server for microbe and miRNA information in plants.
• Big data analysis for microbe information.
