Heterologous Expression of <i>Salvia miltiorrhiza</i> MicroRNA408 Enhances Tolerance to Salt Stress in <i>Nicotiana benthamiana</i>

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous small RNAs that regulate the expression of target genes post-transcriptionally; they are known to play major roles in development and responses to abiotic stress. MicroRNA408 (miR408) is a conserved small RNA in plants; it was reported that miR408 genes w...
