Dmitriev, N.V. Melnikova* The role of microRNA in abiotic stress response in plants Engelhardt Institute of Molecular Biology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, 119991, Russia*mnv-4529264@yandex.ru Received - 2015-09-08; Accepted - 2015-10-06 Regulation of gene expression via microRNA is the key mechanism of response to biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. There are a lot of experimental data on the biological function of microRNAs in response to different stresses in various plant species. This review contains up-to-date information on molecular mechanisms of microRNA action in plants in response to abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, mineral nutrient deficiency or imbalance. microRNA, plants, abiotic stress, gene expression regulation, high-throughput sequencing |
