We present miRkwood, a comprehensive software tool developed to identify microRNAs and their precursor in plant genomes, with or without small-RNA-seq sequencing data. We describe how to install the software, how to set up and run it, and how to explore and analyse the results: genomic annotations, secondary structure of the precursor, alignments, reads distribution.

Southwest China is characterized by high plateaus, large mountain systems, and deeply incised dry valleys formed by major rivers and their tributaries. Despite the considerable attention given to alpine plant radiations in this region, the timing and mode of diversification of the numerous dry valley plant lineages remain unknown. To address this knowledge gap, we investigated the macroevolution of Isodon (Lamiaceae), a lineage commonly distributed in the dry valleys in southwest China and wetter areas of Asia and Africa.

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN, ) is a devastating pest affecting soybean production worldwide. Host resistance is one of the primary practices used to manage SCN. The locus contributes to the strong and effective SCN resistance, with resistance levels predominantly governed by copy number variations (CNVs) and, to lesser extent, sequence variations.

Unlabelled: Orphan genes (OGs), also known as lineage-specific genes, are species-specific genes that play a crucial role in species-specific adaptations to various stresses. Although OGs have been identified in several plant species, there is no information on OGs in banana genomes. This study aimed to systematically identify OGs in twelve banana (sub)species using comparative genomics.
