MicroRNA and cDNA-Microarray as Potential Targets against Abiotic Stress Response in Plants: Advances and Prospects

Abiotic stresses, such as temperature (heat and cold), salinity, drought negatively affect plant productivity; hence, the molecular responses of abiotic stresses need to be investigated. Numerous genetic engineering studies have made substantial contributions revealed that are key factors associated with production losses in plants. In response altered expression patterns miRNAs been reported, and, a result, cDNA-microarray microRNA (miRNA) used identify genes their against environmental adversities MicroRNA plays significant role growth development, regulation various biological metabolic activities. MicroRNAs studied for over decade those susceptible stimuli, characterize patterns, recognize involvement stress tolerance. Recent findings reported plants assign critical post-transcriptional regulators gene sequence-specific manner adapt multiple during developmental cycle. this study, we reviewed current status described application miRNA understand different approaches survive stresses. Despite accessibility suitable miRNAs, there is lack simple ways cDNA-microarray. The elucidation may lead developing technologies early detection stressors. cDNA-microarrays powerful tools enhance tolerance through advanced sequencing bioinformatics techniques, including miRNA-regulated network, target prediction, identification, profile, features (disease or stress, biomarkers) association, based on machine learning algorithms, NGS, specific Such were established network emphasizing achievements, impediments, future perspectives. Furthermore, also classify new functional play resistance, since many constitute an unexplained fraction.
