Article Synopsis
- Noncoding and coding RNAs play crucial roles in the growth, development, and stress responses of plants, particularly during the transition from vegetative to reproductive stages in Coffea arabica.
- Researchers sequenced small RNA libraries and combined this data with messenger RNA sequencing to identify different transcript types at key developmental stages.
- The analysis revealed that various small RNAs accumulate in a stage-specific manner, with particular emphasis on miRNAs and their association with hormonal responses and transcription factor expression during floral development.
Bud necrosis (BN) is a common disorder that affects Vitis vinifera L. and reduces its potential yield. To minimize the losses caused by BN, the double pruning management was applied in Brazilian Southeast vineyards.

Together with the wild tomato Solanum pennellii, it is widely used for developing better cultivars. MicroRNAs affect mRNA regulation, inhibiting its translation and/or promoting its degradation.

- MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and small-interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are key components of RNA silencing pathways, with miRNAs originating from hairpin structures and siRNAs from double-stranded RNA; both are processed by DICER-like enzymes and utilized by ARGONAUTE for gene silencing.* -
- In the economically significant plant Coffea canephora, researchers discovered 11 AGO proteins, 9 DCL proteins (including a novel DCL1-like), and 8 RDR proteins, along with 235 miRNA precursors and 317 mature miRNAs, charting their roles in gene regulation.* -
- The study emphasizes the complex interplay of small RNAs in coffee, revealing
