Five Conserved microRNAs Dominate the Small-RNA Pool of Three Arid-Zone Camel-Forage Plants: De Novo Repertoires and a Species-Matched Test of Cross-Kingdom Targeting in the Dromedary

Background: Camel husbandry underpins food security in drylands, and dromedary (Camelus dromedarius) milk is valued as a functional food whose composition is thought to be shaped by the desert forage that camels browse. Dietary plant microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed as one m...
