Isolation and expression analysis of four HD-ZIP III family genes targeted by microRNA166 in peach

C. H. Zhang, Zhang, B. B., Ma, R. J., Yu, M. L., Guo, S. L., and Guo, L., Isolation and expression analysis of four HD-ZIP III family genes targeted by microRNA166 in peach, vol. 14, pp. 14151-14161, 2015.

MicroRNA166 (miR166) is known to have highly conserved targets that encode proteins of the class III homeodomain-leucine zipper (HD-ZIP III) family, in a broad range of plant species. To further understand the relationship between HD-ZIP III genes and miR166, four HD-ZIP III family genes (PpHB14, PpHB15, PpHB8, and PpREV) were isolated from peach (Prunus persica) tissue and characterized. Spatio-temporal expression profiles of the genes were analyzed.
