Abstract
This invention discloses novel microRNAs and their precursors, and recombinant DNA constructs including such novel miRNAs, miRNA precursors, miRNA promoters, and miRNA recognition sites corresponding to the miRNAs. Included are novel miRNA and miRNA precursors that exhibit nutrient-responsive expression. Also disclosed are miRNA decoy sequences. Further provided are non-natural transgenic plant cells, plants, and seeds containing in their genome a recombinant DNA construct of this invention and methods of controlling gene expression using recombinant DNA constructs of this invention.
