Genome-wide comprehensive analysis of miRNAs and their target genes expressed in resistant and susceptible Capsicum annuum landrace during Phytophthora capsici infection
MiRNAs regulate plants responses to fungal infection and immunity by modulating the gene expression. Despite extensive works on miRNA's role during plant-fungus interaction, work in Capsicum annuum-Phytophthora capsici pathosystem is limited. Therefore, in the current study, genome-wide known and novel miRNAs were identified in two contrasting chilli pepper landraces, i.e. GojamMecha_9086 (resistant) and Dabat_80045 (susceptible) during P. capsici infection
