Plant epitranscriptomics is the study of chemical modifications on RNA molecules, which play critical roles in regulating gene expression and plant development. These modifications, such as methylation and pseudouridination, influence RNA stability, translation, and splicing. Understanding the epitranscriptome allows researchers to explore how plants adapt to environmental stresses, such as drought or nutrient deficiency. Recent advances in sequencing technologies have facilitated the identification of RNA modifications and their functional implications. By manipulating epitranscriptomic processes, biotechnologists aim to enhance crop resilience and improve traits like yield and stress tolerance, paving the way for innovative strategies in plant biotechnology.
