No study has been performed on identifying microRNAs (miRNAs) and their targets in the medicinal plant, Catharanthus roseus. In the present study, using the comparative genomics approach, we have predicted two potential C. roseus miRNAs. Furthermore, twelve potential mRNA targets were identified in C. roseus genome based on the characteristics that miRNAs exhibit perfect or nearly perfect complementarity with their targeted mRNA sequences. Among them many of the targets were predicted to encode ...[more]
