Abstract:Background
Small RNAs (sRNAs) that do not get untranslated into proteins exhibit a pivotal role in the expression regulation of their cognate gene(s) in almost all eukaryotic lineages, including plants. Hitherto, numerous protein families such as Dicer, a unique class of Ribonuclease III, have been reported to be involved in sRNAs processing pathways and silencing. In this study, we aimed to investigate the phylogenetic relationship and evolutionary history of the DCL protein family.
