Compared with other transcription factors, much less studies have been performed on paclobutrazol-resistance (PRE), a subgroup of the extensive bHLH transcription factor gene family, and the research in cotton was also limited. By utilizing the PRE genes and their conserved domains identified in Arabidopsis, a total of 23, 22, 11, and 12 PRE genes were identified from two major cultivated cotton species and their two ancestors...

microRNA (miRNA) is a type of endogenous short-chain non-coding RNA with regulatory function found in eukaryotes, which is involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular and biological processes. However, the research on the development of cashmere goat secondary hair follicles is still relatively scarce. In this study, small RNA libraries and mRNA libraries of 45 days, 55 days, 65 days, and 75 days of fetal skin of cashm...
