摘要： Chilling stress is a major factor limiting the yield and quality of vegetable soybean (Glycine max L.) on a global scale. In the present study, systematic identification and functional analysis of miRNAs under chilling stress were carried out to clarify the molecular mechanism of chilling resistance. Two independent small RNA libraries from leaves of soybean were constructed and sequenced with the high-throughput Illumina Solexa system. A total of 434 known miRNAs and 3 novel miRNAs were identified. Thirty-five miRNAs were verified by qRT-PCR analysis. Furthermore, their gene targets were identified via high-throughput degradome sequencing. A total of 898 transcripts were targeted by 54 miRNA families attributed to five categories. More importantly, we identified 51 miRNAs differentially expressed between chilling stress and control conditions. The targets of these miRNAs were enriched in oxidation-reduction, signal transduction, and metabolic process functional categories. Our qRT-PCR analysis confirmed a negative relationship among the miRNAs and their targets under chilling stress. Our work thus provides comprehensive molecular evidence supporting the involvement of miRNAs in chilling-stress responses in vegetable soybean.
