Accuracy of microRNA discovery pipelines in non-model organisms using closely related species genomes.

Mapping small reads to genome reference is an essential and more common approach to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) in an organism. Using closely related species genomes as proxy references can facilitate miRNA expression studies in non-model species that their genomes are not available. However, the le...
