Abstract
⺠We show a novel microRNA-mediated mechanism for control of bud dormancy in trees. ⺠ptr-MIR169a and PtrHAP2-5 gene showed inverse expression during dormancy period. ⺠The PtrHAP2-5 decline in abundance correlated with high ptr-MIR169a levels. ⺠PtrHAP2-5 cleavage occurred at the miR169 site during PtrHAP2-5 transcript decline. ⺠Our results show that miR169 attenuates PtrHAP2-5 transcript during dormancy.
