Distribution of miRNA encoding genes of V. vinifera on LGs and number of their putative target genes grouped in families.

Grape miRNAs identified by BLAST search using A. thaliana miRNAs as reference are assigned to the 19 LGs of grape. Genes predicted to be targeted by miRNA are reported. Sequences of the mature miRNAs and the miRNAs*, secondary structures of some predicted pre-miRNAs are presented in Table S9.1The prediction of grape miRNAs by BLAST search ([129]. The number of loci is indicated in brackets.2The position of some loci on LGs is non determined (n.d.). miR169, miR395 and miR399 loci cluster frequently.3Potential target genes with a pairing site (score [129]. The number of putative target genes is indicated between brackets. Abbreviations: TF, Transcription factor; TAS, trans-acting short interfering RNA transcript.4Number of miRNA loci and families in Arabidopsis, rice and poplar according to miRNA sequence database release 10.0 (miRBase, [78]).
