RhoFold+ outperforms other RNA structure prediction methods, achieving sub-4 Å r.m.s.d. on CASP15 RNA targets and RNA-Puzzles. It is fast, efficient, and does not require expert knowledge.

In plants, secondary and tertiary RNA structures, such as G-quadruplexes, play vital roles, especially under conditions favoring structural stability, such as low temperatures.
