microRNAs play critical roles in the survival and recovery of Caenorhabditis elegans from starvation-induced L1 diapause

A recent study showed that the expression of miR-71 was significantly increased relative to other miRNAs in starved L1 worms (15). However, miR-71 does not appear to regulate all postembryonic development during L1 diapause recovery. Unlike classical heterochronic miRNAs such as lin-4 and let-7, the role of miR-71 in vulval cell division is essential in
