Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved. Different environmental cues lead to changes in physiology, biochemistry and molecular status of plant's growth. Till date, various genes have been accounted for their role in regulating plant development and response to abiotic stress. Excluding genes that code for a functional protein in a cell, a large chunk of the eukaryotic transcriptome consists of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) which lack protein coding capacity but are still functional. Recent advancements in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology have led to the unearthing of different types of small and large non-coding RNAs in plants. Non-coding RNAs are broadly categorised into housekeeping ncRNAs and regulatory ncRNAs which work at transcriptional, post-transcriptional and epigenetic levels. Diverse ncRNAs play different regulatory roles in nearly all biological processes including growth, development and response to changing environments. This response can be perceived and counteracted by plants using diverse evolutionarily conserved ncRNAs like miRNAs, siRNAs and lncRNAs to participate in complex molecular regimes by activating gene-ncRNA-mRNA regulatory modules to perform the downstream function. Here, we review the current understanding with a focus on recent advancements in the functional studies of the regulatory ncRNAs at the nexus of abiotic stresses and development. Also, the potential roles of ncRNAs in imparting abiotic stress tolerance and yield improvement in crop plants are also discussed with their future prospects |
