Abstract Background Soybean is a major legume crop with high nutritional and environmental values suitable for sustainable agriculture. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), are important regulators of gene functions in eukaryotes. However, the interactions between these two types of ncRNAs in the context of plant physiology, especially in response to salinity stress, are poorly understood. Results Here, we challenged a cultivated soybean accession (C08) and a wild one (W05) with salt treatment and obtained their small RNA transcriptomes at six time points from both root and leaf tissues. In addition to thoroughly analyzing the differentially expressed miRNAs, we also documented the first case of miRNA arm-switching (miR166m), the swapping of dominant miRNA arm expression, in soybean in different tissues. Two arms of miR166m target different genes related to salinity stress (chloroplastic beta-amylase 1 targeted by miR166m-5p and calcium-dependent protein kinase 1 targeted by miR166m-3p), suggesting arm-switching of miR166m play roles in soybean in response to salinity stress. Furthermore, two pairs of miRNA:lncRNA interacting partners (miR166i-5p and lncRNA Gmax_MSTRG.35921.1; and miR394a-3p and lncRNA Gmax_MSTRG.18616.1) were also discovered in reaction to salinity stress. Conclusions This study demonstrates how ncRNA involves in salinity stress responses in soybean by miRNA arm switching and miRNA:lncRNA interactions. The behaviors of ncRNAs revealed in this study will shed new light on molecular regulatory mechanisms of stress responses in plants, and hence provide potential new strategies for crop improvement. |
