Cucurbita pepo L. is an essential economic vegetable crop worldwide, and its production is severely affected by powdery mildew (PM). However, our understanding of the molecular mechanism of PM resista
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase 2 (RDR2) is a crucial regulator of RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). Recentily RDR2 was reported to regulate expression of long intergenic noncoding RNAs. Here we used
Sequencing of 24 small RNA libraries produced 55.2M reads while 404M reads were obtained from the corresponding 24 PARE libraries. From these, 202 miRNAs were ascertained, of which mature miRNA eviden
