doi:10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb2021-1021

Abstract

Abstract:

microRNA (miRNA) is a kind of endogenous non-coding small RNA, it plays significant role in the whole process of plant growth and development, and it is an important regulator in the gene expression. miR172 is an important member among various miRNA families. In order to understand the role of miR172 in plants more intuitively, the authors classified and summarized the research progress of miR172 in regulating plant growth and development, as well as plant response to adversity stress. miR172 is involved in many processes, such as vegetative phase transition, flowering, floral organ development, internode length, plant commodity organs’ development and plant response to adversity stress. The authors think that miR172 still has many unknown functions in plants. Therefore, it is an important research direction to deeply explore more roles of miR172 in plant growth process in the future. Based on this, the function and molecular regulation mechanism of miR172 should be deeply analyzed, which will lay a theoretical foundation for artificially using miR172 to regulate plant growth and development.

Key words: miR172, microRNA, growth and development, floral organ development, adversity stress
