Most plant transcriptomes constitute functional non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that lack the ability to encode proteins. In recent years, more research has demonstrated that ncRNAs play important regulatory roles in almost all plant biological processes by modulating gene expression. Thus, it is important to study the biogenesis and function of ncRNAs, particularly in plant growth and development and stress tolerance. In this review, we systematically explore the process of formation and regulatory mechanisms of ncRNAs, particularly those of microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs). Additionally, we provide a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in ncRNAs research, including their regulation of plant growth and development (seed germination, root growth, leaf morphogenesis, floral development, and fruit and seed development) and responses to abiotic and biotic stress (drought, heat, cold, salinity, pathogens and insects). We also discuss research challenges and provide recommendations to advance the understanding of the roles of ncRNAs in agronomic applications.
