Genome-wide identification of miRNAs and lncRNAs in Cajanus cajan.

miRNA and lncRNAs in plants are known to control a variety of traits including yield, quality and stress tolerance. Owing to its agricultural importance and medicinal value, the identified miRNA, lncRNA and their targets in C. cajan may be useful for genome editing to improve better quality crop. A thorough understanding of ncRNA-based cellular regulatory networks will aid in the improvement of C. cajan agricultural traits.
