Abstract
Some pri-miRNAs can code for
short peptides called micropeptides
(miPEPs) and it has been suggested
that these peptides positively regulate the accumulation of their associated miRNAs. Recent data further
support this model and point towards the potential for miPEPs to
be used in the agricultural sector
to improve crop agronomic traits.
