Regulatory mechanisms and metabolic changes of miRNA during leaf color change in the bud mutation branches of Acer pictum subsp. mono.

To reveal the molecular mechanism of leaf color changes in Acer pictum subsp. mono, this study was conducted on bud-transformed branches, analyzing the transcriptome and small RNAs of Acer pictum subsp. mono leaves and performing miRNA-mRNA association analysis on differentially expressed mRNAs and miRNAs. We then performed gene expression profiling using data obtained by RNA-seq of six groups of material from both AG and AR periods. Comparative gene expression profiling of RNA-seq data from leaves of wild branches and leaves of mutant branches of Acer pictum subsp. mono.(AG,AR)
