Abstract

Within our research we are focused on the applicability and exploitation of genomic markers based on microRNA (miRNAs) molecules for purposes of genotyping and genomic activity mapping of miRNA-based markers. The miRNA-based genotyping systems have been applied in the germplasm evaluation of flax (Linum usitatissimum L.). Obtained results have shown that miRNA-based molecular markers are effective for the evaluation of flax genome polymorphism in the context of the origin as well as for mapping the activity of miRNAs molecules during different developmental stages of various plant tissues.
