TL;DR: It is indicated that diverse set of wheat miRNAs were responsive to powdery mildew infection and heat stress and could function in wheat responses to both biotic and abiotic stresses.

TL;DR: It is found that diverse sets of wheat long npcRNAs were responsive to powdery mildew infection and heat stress, and could function in wheat responses to both biotic and abiotic stresses, which provided a starting point to understand their functions and regulatory mechanisms in the future.

TL;DR: The heat stress responsive genes identified in this study will facilitate the understanding of molecular basis for heatolerance in different wheat genotypes and future improvement of heat tolerance in wheat and other cereals.

TL;DR: A large proportion of wheat homeologs exhibited expression partitioning under normal and abiotic stresses, which possibly contributes to the wide adaptability and distribution of hexaploid wheat in response to various environmental constraints.

TL;DR: The TamiR159 overexpression rice lines were more sensitive to heat stress relative to the wild type, indicating that the downregulation of Tami R159 in wheat after heat stress might participate in a heat stress-related signaling pathway, in turn contributing to heat Stress tolerance.
