Major Research Achievements |
In order to answer these two questions, we investigated the transcriptome of bamboo flowering aiming to identify bamboo flowering related genes as well as microRNAs who play a role in regulation of bamboo flowering. We identified about 146,395 high quality unigenes with an average length of 461 bp, and about 126 microRNAs were indentified (89 conserved and 37 novel) in Dendrocalamus latiflorus....
