Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Plants have developed complex regulatory networks to manage functional gene expression for survival and growth, such as transcription factor-regulated transcriptional programming. However, numerous studies from the past decade show that 21–24 nucleotides small RNA molecules, mostly microRNAs (miRNAs), dominate posttranscriptional gene regulation through base pairing with their complementary mRNA targets, especially targeting transcription factors in plants. We discuss miRNA-controlled plant development, from miRNA biogenesis dysregulation-caused pleiotropic developmental abnormalities through shoot apical meristem modulation, leaf and root system regulation, and plant floral transition. We also include certain miRNAs shown to significantly impact agricultural plant production and quality. Recent studies also demonstrate that one miRNA regulates organ development, phase transition, and stress responses. Thus, miRNA may operate as a node molecule to coordinate plant growth and environmental cues, which may illuminate the hidden molecular network by revealing essential regulators or regulatory pathways. In this review, we are going to explain about the role of miRNAs in plant development.
