Abstract:Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) is renowned for having the highest concentration of lignans among all plant species worldwide. However, it also contains a notable amount of cyanogenic glycosides, prompting efforts to reduce their levels. MicroRNAs, recognized as significant epigenetic factors, hold the potential to serve as genetic markers in achieving this breeding goal. In this study, 44,885 mature microRNAs were utilized alongside one genome and four transcriptomes of flax. Twelve gene sequences were obta… Show more
