Conserved and non-conserved RNA-target modules in plants: lessons for a better understanding of Marchantia development.

Scientists discuss the role of regulatory non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in the development of the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha. They highlight conserved and specific ncRNA-target modules and suggest the need for further research to understand the molecular mechanisms that control ncRNA-directed developmental processes.
