Abstract

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-coding RNAs not coding for protein which are usually > 200 nucleotides in length and have various biological functions. Most recent advancements about role of lncRNAs in maize is compiled in this article. In maize lncRNAs function as abiotic stress tolerance including drought, boron, salt, help in growth regulation by influencing flowering time, help in seed development and play role in low phosphate tolerance, they are also responsive to mycorrhizal fungi. This review is intended to have overall view on maize lncRNAs and guide in further research on maize lncRNAs so that lncRNAs can be used in maize improvement.
