Rapid intraspecific evolution of miRNA and siRNA genes in the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

Rapid intraspecific evolution of miRNA and siRNA genes in the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

RNA silencing, or RNA interference (RNAi) in metazoans mediates development, reduces viral infection and limits transposon mobility. RNA silencing involves 21-30 nucleotide RNAs classified into microRNA (miRNA), exogenous and endogenous small interfering RNAs (siRNA), and Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA...
