Description

Non-coding RNA in Plants: Modulation and Stress Responses  is the first book to present the basics of the importance of long non-coding RNA and its potential in addressing abiotic and biotic stresses. Describing the MiRNA and small RNA and their role in plant development, this book explains the importance of long non-coding RNA in plants, including its significance in virus resistance, its transposable elements, effector trigger immunity, and fungal and bacterial resistance in plants. Non-coding RNA for Modulation and Stress Response in Plants presents the state-of-the-science from its historical foundation through application throughout the lifecycle and production of agricultural and non-agricultural plants. 

While various coding has been explored within animal science, plant exposition has been minimal.  This book is designed to inspire additional research and developments toward improved plant resiliency and production.

Key features

  • Presents foundational information for understanding the importance of long non-coding RNA in plants
  • Summarizes and illustrates identification and diversity analysis approaches toward Non-coding RNA as regulations
  • Explores how non-coding RNAs may play a role in the regulation of stress responses by highlighting their biogenesis and mechanisms of action
